На несколько дней, с 10 по 13 октября, Печорин заглянет в Лас-Вегас. Не в казино, а на PollyGrind Underground Film Festival, в статусе официального номинанта и представителя "another breed" - "другой породы". Так действительно звучит одна из номинаций этого удивительного фестиваля - одного из самых авангардных в Северной Америке.

О фестивале действительно хочется сказать несколько слов.
Дальше - все на английском, читайте, пока не надоест.
"Reveling in everything from arthouse to grindhouse to everything in between, PollyGrind has quickly made a name for itself as one of the up-and-coming premiere genre fests out there due to the success of each year of programming." - DreadCentral.com

"You can count on PollyGrind to deliver buzzworthy films you just won''t find in theaters." - Herschell Gordon Lewis, The Godfather of Gore
"A paean to a brand of rugged, gritty filmmaking that refuses to lie down and die, PollyGrind celebrates shoestring passion and unsavory inspiration, it gives voice to primal screams and rebel yells: it''s got the (buckets of) guts that most festivals lack." - Sean Gill, director of Fresh Piss, 2012 best transgression short
"Chad Clinton Freeman runs a festival that I believe stands for originality, courage and left of centre storytelling. I''ve followed PollyGrind since it''s inception and as a first time filmmaker, to screen at the festival was both an honour and dream come true." - Jennifer Campbell, director of Hike, 2012 best woman director, short film
