 WWW.SANTACRUZSPCA.ORG/MINE\n\nOR\n\n$25 AT THE DOOR. \n\nHailed as 
 “absorbing,” “a must see,” “Oscar material” and “the best 
 movie at SXSW,” MINE is a feature-length, independent documentary about 
 the essential bond between humans and animals, set against the backdrop of 
 one of the worst natural disasters in modern U.S. history: Hurricane 
 Katrina. This gripping, character-driven story follows New Orleans 
 residents as they attempt the daunting task of trying to reunite with their 
 pets who have been adopted by families all over the country, and chronicles 
 the custody battles that arise when two families love the same pet. Who 
 determines the fate of the animals—and the people—involved? A 
 compelling meditation on race, class and the power of compassion, MINE 
 examines how we treat animals as an extension of how we view and treat each 
 other.\n\nGeralyn Pezanoski, Co-Founder of Smush Media, has 12 years of 
 experience in film and video production and makes her feature directorial 
 debut with MINE.\n\nFilm producing credits include the narrative short, On 
 A Tuesday (Santa Barbara & LAIFF) and Motherland (SXSW), and directing 
 credits include the doc series Firehouse (Sony Pictures Entertainment). She 
 lives in San Francisco with her husband Peter and their dog Nola.\n\nThe 
 Santa Cruz SPCA, with the help of countless staff members, volunteers, 
 foster homes, and the generosity of Doris Day, enacted one of the largest 
 airlifts of dogs and cats from the Hurricane Katrina disaster site. Over 
 180 animals were saved, reunited and re-homed due to their valiant efforts. 
 The Santa Cruz SPCA is an entirely donation-run, non-profit, no-kill 
 shelter, that fights to insure the best possible quality of life for 
 animals and to promote respect and reverence for all. Their mission is to 
 strive to prevent cruelty to animals, to stop pet overpopulation, to 
 promote community responsibility and for the humane care, treatment and 
 well-being of all animals through adoption, education, information, and 
 action. Proceeds from this presentation of MINE: The Movie will benefit the 
 Santa Cruz SPCA.\n\n\n
