Los Angeles, CA – Welcome to Macintosh has been selected to present at the 2008 Naperville Independent Film Festival in Naperville, Illinois. The festival runs from September 24th through the 27th, with Welcome to Macintosh screening Thursday September 25th at 12:15pm. This comes on the heels of a September 5th screening in Berlin for the Globians Documentary Film Festival.

About the Festival:
The mission of the Naperville Independent Film Festival is to promote, encourage, and inspire local and international filmmakers, future filmmakers, and those passionate about the film industry, while encouraging cultural tourism and film industry development in and around Naperville, Illinois.

Back in the US of A. “This is the first time the new version of the film will be shown in the US,” states Robert Baca, Co-Director of the film. Ron Wayne had founded the Apple Computer Company with Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak in the late 70′s. The exclusive interview was added to the lineup just prior to the European premiere at the Globians Documentary Film Festival in August. “Mr. Wayne adds another level to the story,” adds Co- Director Josh Rizzo.

World Wide Distribution:
“We are currently in talks with a number of distributors to bring the movie to an international audience,” stated Baca. “But we are not in the habit of counting our chickens, as the saying goes.”

“The DVD is on target for our internal deadlines, which means we will make a formal announcement soon. For now, lets just say it will be cold in New York and warm in Australia when we do,” stated Rizzo.

“There is only so much a DVD can hold and we have many hours of original, never-before-seen interviews that go beyond the film,” added Baca. “It has been a challenge to condense it down.”

Rob Baca will be in Berlin for the September 5th screening, and both Rob and Josh are planning to attend the September 25th screening in Naperville.
