Aloha,

I just wanted to share a little project I'm working on with you all.

I'm currently shooting a documentary about tiki-philes from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada called "Mai-tais, Toques and Tikis".

The film will also feature some history of the old Beachcomber Restaurant that was located here as well. We're going to look at
the challenges of collecting tiki in Winnipeg, sourcing ingredients for cocktails etc.

We've somehow roped Derek Yaniger into creating a poster for the film too, which is kinda cool.

Anyhoo, if you're on the Facebook you can check out our page here:

Thanks!

Thanks for your interest! Yes, there will be a limited number of DVDs for sale. The film premieres in June. DVDs should be available shortly after that.

It'll be playing on local TV only for a while but there will be a few DVDs for sale. Not sure about festivals yet. Once I have the DVDs I'll update the post.

I also have a few extra serigraphs for the movie that I'm willing to part with. These are signed and numbered by Derek Yaniger.
They are a nice larger size at 15" x 24.5"

$45.00 plus shipping.
