Presented by Director John Antonelli

Pacific Room at Tides
Can wildlife conservation efforts go too far? Two African stories. Two white families. Two vastly different approaches: one ruthless, one collaborative. Two perplexingly different outcomes.
Filmmaking partners John Antonelli and Will Parrinello will screen their 20 minute rough cut of The Killing Seasons. Shot on location in Zambia and Swaziland, the film began as short segments about Hammer Simwinga and Thuli Makama, two Goldman Environmental Prize winners. Now, midway in the production, Antonelli is shaping the story in the edit room and planning another trip to Africa. This informal feedback session will help inform the filmmakers on their progress and guide them as they move forward.
Antonelli's Sam Cooke: Crossing Over was broadcast on PBS American Masters, which was just nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Nonfiction Series.
Parrinello's most recent film Mustang: Journey of Transformation had its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival and was broadcast on PBS.
