Virtual World Simulcast + NYC Film Premiere in Times Square- Friday Oct 24th!!
Times Square. What a strangely perfect place for the NYC Premiere of MEDITATE AND DESTROY. At the crossroads of the world, where ubiquitious advertising seeps into our collective consciousness, the seeds of inner peace are rarely found or actively sought. It is a place representative of America’s over-consumption and constant need to find fulfillment in external objects.
The Times Square Art Center where the upcoming film screening will be held is a modestly sized 80-seat theater. The rampant advertising and materialism outdoors isn’t likely to end anytime soon. But, how wonderful that a few amongst the millions will turn their backs on the bright lights, meet in a dark theater, and dare to go against the stream.
Q&A with Director, Sarah Fisher
Screening will be preceded by Raffi Asdourian’s samurai short film, “Ai”
Location: Times Square Arts Center 300 W. 43rd St, Ste 309/310
