Summer can be a turbulent time for many: wave pool operators, emergency room doctors and the dozens of water-park enthusiasts shuttled so hastily between the two. But here on The Moon, waters are calm like a Sea of Tranquility! It’s time to quit worrying and come on down to Union Pool…

BAMCinemaFest Screening of THE UNSPEAKABLE ACT... →
New York premiere of Dan Sallitt’s THE UNSPEAKABLE ACT. This also marks my premiere as the lead in a [very very good] feature film. The lineup for BAMCinemaFest is awesome, I saw several of these films at the Sarasota Film Festival this April and personally recommend V/H/S and Welcome to Pine Hill.
PSYCHED!
