ABOUT COURTING CONDI

Courting Condi is the first musical docu-tragi-comedy ever! Part Borat, part Fahrenheit 9/11, part Mamma Mia - the film follows a love-struck soul's hilarious, emotionally engaging, and ultimately shocking quest to woo Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

A spin on the Rapunzel fairy-tale, this unique romantic/political/biographical feature follows Devin Ratray, a portly musician, former child actor (famed as Buzz in Home Alone), and besotted admirer of Condi, as he prepares to meet her and penetrate her heart, soul and stretch limo. As Devin travels the country, learning more about the great lady from those who know her, Courting Condi tells the life story of one of our era's most inspiring, enigmatic, and controversial figures. This film is both timely and a classic love story, punctuated by timeless songs.

Courting Condi stars: Condoleezza Rice, Devin Ratray, Adrian Grenier (Entourage), Jim Norton (HBO's Monster Rain), Oscar-winning songwriter Carol Connors (Rocky, The Rescuers), Lawrence Wilkerson (Colin Powell's chief of staff) and Frank Luntz (consultant to Schwarzenegger and the Bush family).

Running time: 107 minutes.

The film will be screened from an HDCAM format.
