Media Alert - Lights, camera, boobies!

Breast Fest Film Festival is back and bigger than ever

TORONTO , Nov. 16 /CNW/ - Rethink Breast Cancer is turning out the lights and putting boobies on the big screen at the 2009 Breast Fest Film Festival. After a successful inaugural year, the world's first breast cancer film festival is back in Toronto this weekend with a new selection of inspiring films that span the emotional spectrum of the breast cancer journey. As part of Breast Fest's expanded three-day program, Rethink will unveil more panel discussions and workshops to inspire dialogue, facilitate learning and foster community.

Opening night screenings will include the premiere of Rethink's own short documentary film, About Her. This original production captures the healing power of storytelling, bringing together the experiences of five Canadian women living with HER2-positive breast cancer.

Back and bigger than ever, the Breast Fest Film Festival is an event not to be missed. A full schedule of show times, workshops and film descriptions can be viewed at www.breastfestfilmfest.com.
