Thanks from The 13^th Day team.

We are delighted to announce that the Shrine in Fatima have endorsed The 13th Day with the following statement…

The Shrine of Fatima recognizes that this independent fictional film, based on the events surrounding the apparitions of Fatima, is of great value. It is an intense film that shows great sensitivity. It shows research and dedication, and it is well structured. From the very first contacts the Shrine had with the production crew, the group always manifested to have, as main purpose for this work, to highlight the message of Fatima. After viewing the final product, the Shrine congratulates the entire crew and prays that this main purpose may soon come to fruition, so that the world may, through Our Lady and this remarkable event for the Church and for the world, come to God.

In addition, the Shrine has agreed for The 13th Day to Premiere at the Sanctuary theatre, the Amphitheatre of Paul VI Pastoral Centre, a 2200 seater auditorium in Fatima on October 13th 2009 at 21.00.

We are working with Paulus Editora to enable this awesome opportunity to present The 13th Day spectacle of the Miracle of the Sun, on the actual anniversary and location of its original occurrence.

All main crew and cast members will be attending the event, so we look forward to meeting you there.

The doors will be open to all who wish to attend and it is a free event !

The 13th Day is now complete, and fully mastered in High Definition, Dolby surround sound ready for distribution.

We will be making our industry premiere on May 13th 2009, the opening day at the Marche Du Film in Cannes Palais F at 11.30am.

We aim to make it available to view as soon as possible, so our current focus is to find a distributor with the right commercial and spiritual sensibilities to exploit the full market and message delivery potential of the film.

We are currently negotiating for the license rights in North America, and so hope to be able to make the film available to view and buy within 6 months.

The 13th Day will Premiere for cast, crew and the press in select ‘invitation only’ screenings at the end of May. These will be in Birmingham, UK, and of course in Fatima, Portugal. Dates t.b.c.
