"Psychedelic rock band the Flaming Lips present Christmas on Mars: A Fantastical Film Freakout Featuring the Flaming Lips, a glorious science fiction film that marks the directorial debut of the Lips' visionary frontman Wayne Coyne. Seven years in the making, Christmas on Mars features original music by the Flaming Lips ("The greatest US band today" - The Guardian), with acting performances by all band members, and many others from their Oklahoma City-based team. Comedian Fred Armisen (Saturday Night Live) and actor Adam Goldberg (Dazed and Confused, Two Days in Paris) also appear.

It's Christmastime, and the colonization of Mars is underway. However, when an oxygen generator and a gravity control pod malfunction, Major Syrtis (the Lips' Steven Drozd) and his team (including the Lips' Michael Ivins) fear the worst. Syrtis also hallucinates about the birth of a baby, and many other strange things. Meanwhile, a compassionate alien superbeing (Coyne) arrives, inspiring and helping the isolated astronauts."

EFS Gets Grant Monies From Arts Erie and PA Council of The Arts!!!

Yay for free money!!! John(along with his lovely wife Dorota) and Adam recieved a swanky check at an even swankier get together at Erie's Warner Theater earlier this week. The grant makes up a large portion of the EFS budget, and is therefore totally sweet. There were many other organizations from EUP that were also granted funds, but none as mysterious and strangly attractive as the Edinboro Film Series. When asked to describe what we do, John replied with a snide, "What DON'T *wink* we do?"

But in all seriousness, the EFS would not be able to put on any events without this funding. So, since it's election season, vote for your local representative that supports the arts! Like Senator Jane Earll. anyway, just vote, ok? please?
