THE NEW YORK PREMIERE OF “THE TRIUMPH OF WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON” AT THE 2009 NEW YORK INTERNATIONAL FILM AND VIDEO FESTIVAL

WHAT: The New York premiere of Bloomfield resident Daniel Califf-Glick’s directorial feature debut, The Triumph of William Henry Harrison, at the 2009 New York International Film and Video Festival. He, along with cast members Mandy Schmieder, David Crabb, Salvatore Brienik, Radhika Vaz, Chance Mullen and Kristin Rozanski will join festival attendees for the Wednesday premiere screening on October 28, 2009 at 10:00 PM at the Village East Cinema, 181 2nd Ave at 12th Street.

SYNOPSIS: Rookie journalist Amanda Delacourt always wanted to break a life-changing

story. But when her work uncovers a conspiracy of historic proportions, she's forced to endure friend and foe alike in order to reveal the truth: William Henry Harrison faked his death to command a shadow government responsible for a century of Western history. Relying on the help of failed historic reenactors, a sleazy wannabe politician, secret society dropouts, and a particularly morbid artiste, Amanda now holds the key to the biggest cover-up since that whole JFK thing.

Shot largely in Bloomfield and Montclair NJ, The Triumph of William Henry Harrison was directed, written, filmed, and edited by Daniel Califf-Glick, and stands as his premiere full-length motion picture. Featuring narration by Hollywood legend Edward Asner and an original score by Jacob Sanders, this hysterical, historical mockumentary answers the greatest "What if?" of all time: "What if America's shortest-lived president was actually somehow relevant?"

WHO: Writer/director Daniel Califf-Glick, several cast and crew members
