Dear progressive friends,

Thank you so much for helping us reach our initial target!!! Amazingly enough it only took us 5 days to meet our goal, with 50 people from all over the world contributing to help us finish the film.


Please be so kind to keep spreading the word, the more we can raise by mid-May the more we are able to put into promoting the documentary by starting an outreach campaign upon completion. Any amount is still eligible for perks. 

Watch the 5' trailer here:

I made my donation yesterday, Apr 26th... and a few hours after José and Adele received it, I noticed this good news from them.-
" Wow! In just 5 days we have almost reached our fundraising goal on IndieGoGo, the trailer has already over 1200 views and online music sites all over the world are posting the campaign in support, like this one in Germany. This experience is being just amazing!"
 
This is so amazing, yet even if the initial goat is almost met, donations can go on freely and promptly in order to give more strength and consistence to the post-production and dissemination processes of this documentary (which includes a screening session at the R.I.O. festival in France).
 
Funding help secures you a place for your name in the end credits of the film.

ABOUT THE FILM
United in their opposition to the established music industry and the pressures of compromising over art, a collective of five progressive bands started in 1978 the Rock In Opposition Movement (RIO) in Europe. Today RIO remains as one of the reference points for many listeners, musicians, and distributors to describe a cooperative approach of making and distributing non-mainstream music. Even when RIO as a movement was short lived, it triggered the creation of a progressive music sub-genre, called RIO/Avant Progressive that is being used lo label contemporary bands from across the world.



PRODUCTION NOTES
This time we spent filming in Europe and the U.S. and we discovered a fountain full of musical treasures. We couldn't be happier with the friendships we made and the footage we collected, and it will be a huge thrill to share the finished movie with all of you. Until now, we've been able to fund the entire cost of production on our own. The good news is that the entire movie is shot and we have a rough cut of 82'. But as we transition into the completion phase, we need your help to get over the finish line. Our anticipated completion date is July 2012.
