I'm trying to create awareness about my film "Home" which was made by Irish
Immigrant Alan Cooke and myself, a native New Yorker.
I'd like to let you know about 2 upcoming screenings in the Metro area.
In addition, we are self distributing "Home" exclusively at our website
_http://homethemovie.com_ (http://homethemovie.com/) for $5.99
Please help us spread word

Sincerely,
Dawn Scibilia
and
Alan Cooke

"This is a beautiful film, a visual poem to that most intimate of ideas
"home," where the totality of human experiences, like the imperceptibly added
layers of a pearl, combine to create, in this wonderful instance,
a gem."
Filmmaker, Ken Burns

“A heartfelt and lyrical journey about the meaning of home.”
Actor, Gabriel Byrne

“A personal odyssey around the mystery of New York”
Irish Novelist, Niall Williams

“Home is a poetic meditation on New York City as a magnet for a
kaleidoscope of people. Alan Cooke’s voice-over is engaging and personal, conveying the
love of an Irishman for his adopted city. Dawn Scibilia’s images are
lustrous, giving the Big Apple a fresh and vivid look. It’s a lovely film.
