Rock Island, IL - Falling Up, a short film produced in the Quad Cities, will be screening on Sunday, June 26th, at 7pm at The Establishment Theatre, 220 19th Street in Rock Island.  Written and directed by Quad City natives Ryan Marzolph, John Hoffman and Louis Young, this locally-made independent movie features many Quad City landmarks as its setting.  Doors open at 6:30 and admission is just $5.

The evening will feature the hometown premiere of Falling Up, a science-fiction drama about a young man struggling with a technology which can record a person's every thought and feeling, and its implications on identity, memory, and humanity.  It will also include a special bonus presentation of the award-winning short film, The Responsibilities of Men, also made in the Quad Cities.  Both films will include an introduction by the filmmakers, and be followed by a discussion and Q&A with the audience.  There will also be original artworks on display and for sale by local artist Louis Young, which were used as props in the film.
