Peekaboo had it's first industry preview screening at The Showroom Cinema, Sheffield, yesterday, where large audienced gathered to watch the film. You could have heard a pin drop during the screening, and by the end there were very few dry eyes in the house.

After the screening Debbie Howard (Writer/Producer/Director) took part in a Q&A with Colin Pons, Producer with Studio of North and 104 Films. The response to the film was overwhelming, there was so much positive feedback it took a good hour and half to leave the building. 

Comments were made on the strong performances of the actors, subtlety of the script and delicate handling of the subject matter, stillbirth, the outstanding Sound Design and Score, the stunning cinematophraphy and much more. Debbie was absolutely delighted with the response to the film, it was better then she could have hoped for. She is now preparing for the London preview which is at The Electric Cinema on June 8th.

Peekaboo is now being submitted to film festivals world wide, and Big Buddha Films are hopeful that it will be as well received there.

Thanks to everyone that came along to the screening and helped us get the film made.
