Watch still loved

Still Loved is now available to audiences and we are working on expanding options for watching the film in coming months. 

We are currently on a cinema tour where you can watch the film at it's best, in the cinema with 5:1 surround sound, followed by a Q&A with our panel. We have had sell out and/or very busy screenings around the UK. Find out more about these screenings HERE. The last of these is on the 7th November. Via Ourscreen you can also set up and host your own screening in a town or city near you. You can read about how to do this HERE.  

Very soon Still Loved will become available pay per view on Vimeo and later on other platforms. As soon as this goes live will publish the link. For now this will be streaming only and for personal use. This is not for use for universities or groups. At the moment it will be UK only. We hope to make this worldwide as soon as possible and hope to be able to create a download option later on with an Education Licence for groups/universities/colleges. 

We are working on an innovative 'Cinema in a Box' package that can be sent out universities/courses/healthcare professionals, where we can send you the pre loaded film on a projector to watch and return to us. This will hopefully become available from around March 2017. 

Next year we hope to release Still Loved on DVD with a lot of additional, bonus material. This will include interviews with the Director, post screening Q&A's and other scenes and interviews with our families that we couldn't fit into the film. This will be beautifully packaged and available to buy. 

Of course, we are still hoping for a TV broadcast, after the incredible success of our cinema tour and amazing reviews we are hoping one of the channels will realise there is a vast audience for this film. Any commissioners interested in this please do get in touch with us at debbie@bigbuddhafilms.co.uk 

We are also hoping to raise funds to subtitle the film in several languages and in English for the deaf and hard of hearing. Please bear with us whilst we arrange all of this. We have limited funding at this time and working as quickly as we can to make this available. 

If you want to donate to the costs of making this available please go to our Just Giving campaign here. Thank you.

Create your own screening of Still Loved at a cinema near you

10/11/2016

You can now organise and host your own screening of Still Loved at a cinema near you any time after 1st December. This will be perfect for already existing groups, or groups of student midwives that want to see the film. You can also do this if you are confident that you can bring enough of your friends along.
 
Working with Ourscreen, you pick the cinema and time/date you like. There is no charge to book the screening and you won’t lose any money. The cinema sets the minimum required number of tickets that have to be sold for the screening to go ahead. Once that number is met, it’s confirmed. If enough tickets aren’t sold by the deadline, it will be cancelled. People’s cards are only charged once the minimum number of tickets are sold, until then it’s just a reservation.
 
However, it is quite a lot of work to sell the tickets, it isn’t easy to do. It will be easier if you are good at using social media to help you promote the film and bring in your audience and be willing to put quite a lot of effort into it. I would urge you, if you book a screening, to contact us and let us know so that we can provide you with useful advice, information, stills, flyers etc to help promotion easier. Please note, just booking a screening at a time you are free and not doing any promotion won't get the screening to go head. You do have to do a lot of promotion and inviting people to come along. Try and make it at a popular time to see a film. Contact us at debbie@bigbuddhafilms.co.uk for more advice and to help you spread the word. 
 
Please also when promoting use our @StillLovedDoc twitter handle, so that we can tweet and retweet for you, because otherwise we might not know who you are. We will do all we can to help you. We will also share these screenings on our Facebook page. Try to not create a screening in a town where there already is another screening taking place, unless that one has sold out, it would be better to get to that screening if possible.
 
Please note that we can’t offer Q&A’s for these screenings. By all means run it past us and if we are free we might be able to come, but this won’t be a guarantee. You could however, ask the cinema to see if you can organise your own post screening discussion, which might be helpful for your audience. Maybe by working with a local Sands or other baby loss support group and asking them to come in and join the post screening discussion. This would work really well. 
 
To create a screening via Ourscreen click HERE and click the 'Create a screening' tab.
 
So everyone who has not had a screening near them, now is your chance to make it happen. Watching Still Loved on the big screen is a wonderful experience. I hope you are able to make this happen.

reviews, press & News about still loved

It's wonderful that we are marking this special week with the release of Still Loved in cinemas across the UK. The response at our first two screenings in Manchester and Cardiff was incredible, with absolutely fantastic feedback from our audiences and very dynamic Q&A's. Tonight we screen at Derby Quad, very fitting since a lot of the film is set in Derby featuring two of our storylines there.

We have had incredibly press and publicity this week, with a 4 star review in The Guardian, 5/5 in Vulture Hound Magazine, an interview on Channel 5 news, a lovely article in The Observer, a great feature in The Pool, been discussed on BBC Radio 4, interviews on BBC Radio Sheffield, BBC Radio Nottingham, BBC Radio Derby, articles in Standard Issue Magazine, Nottingham Post, The Manchester Evening News, The Good Funeral Guide, Televisual, The Big Issue, The Daily Mirror New Magazine, a further interview in Vulutre Hound Magazine, a preview in The London Economic, along with a follow up lovely follow up article from a father's perspective, coverage in the Daily Mail, the Yorkshire Evening Post and the Sheffield Star and countless other blogs, posts and tweets. There are more articles to be published in the coming weeks including a review in The Lancet and Little White Lies.

One of our audiences members also started an on line petition after seeing the film, to push to get it on TV. With almost 4,000 signatures in less than 24 hours this is gathering enormous momentum. You can sign this here.

It's amazing to see all this happening after such a huge resistence to this film for so long. We have received so many emails, messages of support, requests for screenings from around the UK and overseas, endless requests for it to be on TV and beautiful messages of thanks from those that have seen the film.

If you haven't seen Still Loved yet, please see our screening list here and book your tickets. Screenigs are starting to sell out.

Thank you to everyone that has supported us. We hope this film really does break down the silence and stigma around losing a baby and help to raise awareness and challenge attitudes to baby loss.

Today I did two radio interviews about Still Loved with two wonderful radio presenters.

This morning, I was interviewed on The Sally Pepper Show for BBC Radio Derby. Sally actually features in Still Loved when Lou went on her show to talk about the opening of the Baby Memorial Garden in Derby. It was lovely to see Sally again and we had such a great chat about Still Loved, which she had found deeply moving.

You can listen again HERE My interview begins at 1:14:25

Still Loved screens at Derby Quad cinema on Sunday 9th October at 6pm, followed by a Q&A.
In the afternoon I was interviewed by Paulette Edwards on BBC Radio Sheffield. We talked at length about Still Loved and the screening at The Showroom Cinema, Sheffield on 17th October at 8.30pm.

You can listen in HERE. My interview starts at 2:10:15

Big thanks to Sally and Paulette for having me on theirs shows and helping us to promote Still Loved.
