Join us for the Red Carpet Premiere of Gluten Is a Joke, a feature-length documentary produced entirely in Central Florida.
Hosted by comedian James Yon, the evening will include a full screening of the film followed by a live Q&A with members of the filmmaking team. To ensure an inclusive experience, the film will be presented with closed captions. Through comedy, expert interviews, and absurd reenactments, Gluten Is a Joke investigates how celiac disease became the punchline of a cultural joke and the real-world consequences for the millions who have no choice but to live gluten free.
If you are not selected a limited number of advance tickets are available subject to availability:

MAKING THE IMPOSSIBLE PRODUCIBLE
How Films Actually Get Made (and What Happens When the Plan Goes Sideways)
Program Description:
Producer Noah C. Haeussner offers a candid look at what it actually takes to move a film from the page into production, and ultimately into the global marketplace.
Drawing on nearly two decades across studio marketing, independent film, documentaries and international production, Noah has worked with companies including Warner Bros., Paramount, 20th Century Fox, Lionsgate and Sony, and on films and documentaries including Arctic, Introducing, Selma Blair, Shawn Mendes: In Wonder and Here Are the Young Men.
The conversation will explore the realities of packaging, casting, financing, budgeting, incentives, international production, sales, distribution and marketing, but also the part rarely covered in a producing textbook: what happens when the plan falls apart. Financing disappears. Talent changes. Locations collapse. Budgets move. Markets shift. The producer’s real job is knowing how to navigate those moving pieces, adapt quickly, protect the creative, and still find a path to the audience.
