KCTS 9
“Reel NW” aims to champion the work of a talented local independent filmmaking community by bringing the best features, documentaries and shorts to film-loving public television audiences in Seattle, Vancouver, B.C. and beyond. The first season lineup includes Paddle to Seattle, Man Zou: Beijing to Shanghai, Rebuilding Hope and American Collectors. All twelve films featured in the first season of “Reel NW” are made by Northwest filmmakers, shot in the Northwest or feature a Northwest subject. Beyond the Thursday night TV broadcast, the series includes public screening events and an interactive online environment to reach the widest possible audience for Northwest independent film. The first event takes place on November 30, when KCTS 9, the Washington State China Relations Council and the Gardner Center for Asian Art and Ideas host a screening and discussion of Man Zou: Beijing to Shanghai with director Jason Reid (Sonicsgate) at the Seattle Asian Art Museum.
