In reply to Mike Nolan:
To expand a little:
The film looks good and received very positive support for the trailer.
It undoubtedly cost money to make.
Originally it was probably conceived as a festival film and then release here. Then "Free Solo" happened...and won an Oscar... and the zeitgeist was suddenly shifted so that a wider public might take interest.
So a "local showings" tour probably makes economic sense.
The UKC website will only garner loyalty plus some referrals in (which equate to views and ad revenues but pretty small) - so it's last in line.
But, as we enjoy an excellent and free resource, not good manners to complain, eh?
