Tools: Brave New Theaters

Maybe I am a little late to the game, but thanks to a tip from Zac Forsman, I finally caught up with some of the latest work coming from the Brave New Films revolutionary force.  What a great tool.  As the Brave New Foundation website states:
Brave New Theaters is a website that brings together a global network of screening hosts and filmmakers by providing services to both so they can reach more people. The site will emphasize films with a political message.Filmmakers think their job is to make the film and then someone else will distribute it for them. They dream they will go to Sundance, sign with the Weinstein brothers and win an Oscar. Eventually reality sets in and they realize that if anyone is going to see their film, it's up to them to make it happen. Brave New Theaters will help these filmmakers reach a diverse audience using the distribution methods that have made the documentaries of Brave New Films a success.
