Forwarding email from Charlie about the screening of his Passivhaus documentary

 

Hi Passiveheads-

You may remember me as the NYU grad student shooting a documentary on Passive House last year. I just wanted to let you know that the final product made it into the NY Architecture & Design Film Festival and will be playing at Tribeca Cinemas on October 22nd (7:15PM) and October 23rd (3:45PM). It would be great if you could help get the word out to Passive House enthusiasts in NYC; it could be a great opportunity for people to see a bit more of what's going on in Europe, or give a curious friend a quick introduction to the concept.

Here is the film's listing; there is a link on the right to buy tickets. Hope you guys can make it!

All the best,

Charlie Hoxie
