First Annual
Chagrin Documentary Film Festival
 
OCTOBER 12- 16
    
 
The Inspiration
 


Fevered Dreams Productions was founded  by Chagrin Falls Alumnus and 
filmmaker David Ponce as his film production  company.  David was inspired to tell 
 the story of Sparrow Village, an aids orphanage in Johannesburg,  South 
Africa in a documentary entitled "The Lost Sparrows of  Roodepoort".  Even as 
he faced his own battle with  leukemia, David wrote; "Nothing is as  
important to me as producing work that is true to Sparrow and showing those who  
have not visited, just what the human spirit is capable of when faced with  
something immensely dark and frightening." David succumbed in  2006 before his 
story could be completed, but with the  help of his friend Brock Carter and 
Professor Michael Kowalski, "  The Lost Sparrows of Roodepoort" was 
completed and has become an award  winning documentary. Fevered Dreams 
Productionshas become a  nonprofit organization dedicated to allowing talented 
filmmakers to tell their  unique stories.
 

 This festival is dedicated to  David Ponce and to all of the talented 
filmmakers who will share  their  stories with us at this  festival.*
 
* The inspiration for the festival,  David Ponce's "The Lost Sparrows of  
Roodeport"
will be shown on Thursday evening at  the Chagrin Falls Intermediate School.
