Welcome to the official "BRATS Film Tour: Our Journey
Home!" From February to June, 2007, we screened the film in 26 cities across
the country - from San Francisco to Dallas to Orlando to Washington, DC. We also screened
the film at 58 additional locations throughout the United States in film festivals, colleges,
and BRAT reunions. The Armed Forces Network Television (AFN) broadcast the documentary
worldwide in 175 countries and U.S. territories in April 2007 and April 2008 as part of the
Month of the Military Child. And we're still being deluged with requests!
Writer-Director Donna Musil attended many of these screenings, and conducted
extensive Q & A sessions, most of which lasted well over an hour in length.
To schedule an appearance with Writer-Director Donna Musil,
email Producer Tim Wurtz at tim@bratsfilm.com
or call 478.968.0102.

SCHEDULE A SCREENING OR "BRATS" HOUSE PARTY
We continue to schedule screenings and public appearances, when time allows.
If you can't wait for a screening, you can buy a copy
of the film - for yourself, your family, your friends, or your institution. Some
folks traveled up to twelve hours to see a screening of BRATS!
You can also hold a "BRATS" House Party! There's nothing like seeing this film
with a theater or living room full of BRAT NATION, all laughing and crying in unison.
Let us know when you're holding your BRATS House Party and we'll put it on our website.
Afterwards, let us know the responses of the people who came.
If your community group, alumni organization, or educational
institution would like to organize a screening and/or public appearance, please
drop us a line
and we'll work hard to accommodate you.
Whatever works best for you - a screening, a party, a copy of your own - grab a
friend and watch BRATS together. Because sometimes... you actually can go
home again.
