Hello Friends,

I’m Torsten, a techno optimist filmmaker based in London. You’re getting this email because you’ve ordered one of my previous films or attended a movie event. I only send about one email per year and today is the day to announce:

On July 16th, after 3+ years of production, I’m releasing FORTITUDE - Forging the Trillion Dollar Space Economy on AppleTV.

The U.S. premiere will be on the same day in Washington D.C. inside the Library of Congress with a special ‘orbital’ message from an astronaut in the International Space Station. A member of Congress is giving opening remarks and it’ll be the biggest day of my career! Let me know if you’re in town, so I can invite you.

9 years ago, I released my first documentary about Bitcoin and now I’m very excited about The New Space Age. FORTITUDE tells the story of those who take the risks, invest the capital, and endeavour to turn science-fiction into science fact. There are many real VIPs in the film. Here is the short trailer.

In September, there will be red carpet events in London and Zurich. Hopefully, we can soon confirm Berlin, Paris, Edinburgh, Houston and Los Angeles.

As a self-funded content creator and indie filmmaker, can I ask for your support, please? Order FORTITUDE on my website, AppleTV (or Amazon) in the first week. Post, Rate, Like and Share it where ever you can. Send me a virtual high five and tag @TorstenHQ. Most importantly: Tell a friend or two. Thanks a Trillion!

Torsten.
