Hi Friends-
Here's a link and excerpt from the EMDR International Association's website about a new DVD they're marketing in conjunction with our film:
February 28, 2009 -- To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of EMDR, the EMDRIA Foundation is pleased to release an exclusive DVD featuring a forty minute in-depth interview with EMDR creator, Dr. Francine Shapiro. The DVD was produced by award-winning filmmaker Michael Burns, as part of his full-length documentary EMDR, slotted for release in 2010.
"What's special about this interview is that Dr. Shapiro provides a lively and thoughtful introduction to EMDR while at the same time adding a deeper explanation for those who already know the basics," said Burns. "As a result, the DVD would be an extremely useful tool for EMDR therapists to give potential clients or to hand to colleagues being introduced to the protocol."
Profits from the sale of the DVD will benefit the EMDRIA Foundation, a non-profit organization that supports EMDR research and education, and fund the completion of Michael Burns' EMDR.

Wow! How exciting. I bet people will really enjoy seeing how EMDR came about by the creator as well as having something to pass along to those that know nothing about EMDR. Since I've been working on the film, I've had to explain what EMDR is to practically everyone I talk to. Having a DVD that explains the therapy, especially from the person who started it, will be so helpful and a time saver. Francine can explain it so much better than I ever could. I hope a bunch of the DVD's sell so we can continue to get the word out with the feature film and start helping those out there who need us. Good idea, Michael!
