    Documentary Exceeds Festival Buzz
    I recently had the pleasure to view this film that won the Audience Award at the 2014 Newport Beach Film Festival. It's an excellent documentary that will have you laughing throughout. The film takes you on a journey through highs and lows as Spry Bry and his parents experience Burning Man and the emotions that come with it.Visit "Taking My Parents to Burning Man" on Facebook for upcoming dates and locations. The documentary is quickly selling out screenings at all the festival's that it's shown at. Both screenings at NBFF were sold out. I had much anticipation as I waited for the opportunity to view this film. As it states in the title, this documentary exceeded the festival buzz at NBFF.
