Great turnout for NCFM-sponsored film "Support? System Down" in Atlanta

Via Marc A.: On September 24-27, 2009, the NCFM-sponsored documentary film Support? System Down by filmmaker Angelo Lobo had an excellent turnout at the Peach Tree International Film Festival in Atlanta and was the highest-ranking film on the buzz meter.
The film, which includes an interview with NCFM's president Harry Crouch, examines the problems related to the child support system in the U.S. including issues such as draconian guidelines, flawed data, paternity fraud, procedural defects, problems for military parents, bias against non-custodial parents, and how these and other problems affect children, families, homelessness, incarceration, suicide and other issues.
The film has also aired with great success in San Diego and New York and is now being screened for consideration for the Lone Star Film Festival in Fort Worth, Texas.
NCFM helped with initial funding and support for the film, and various other organizations were involved in the production as well. For more information visit http://www.supportthemovie.com/

Now we're talkin'
It would be great if we could arrange as many free screenings, in as many different venues, as that execrable Breaking the Silence: A Child's Story. Man, where is a masculist version of Oprah when you need him?
