  • If I purchase the Education Kit, how can I use it?
    The Kit comes with a license that allows schools, colleges, universities, and nonprofits to use any of the films and videos included in the Kit for non-public, educational purposes – including in-person or virtual courses, training, and professional development. The Kit license DOES NOT grant permission to host a conference screening or public screening of the film, in person or virtually. A Public Performance License (PPL) is necessary for these types of screenings of the film.
  • Do you accept checks or purchase orders?
    Yes, contact us at studio@mrockproductions.com to pay for a Kit by check or purchase order.
  • Can I get a discount for purchasing multiple Education Kits?
    Yes! Discounts are available for the purchase of three or more Kits. Contact studio@mrockproductions.com and provide information about your school/organization and distribution needs in order to arrange for bulk pricing.
  • How many public screenings can I hold with the purchase of one PPL?
    Just one. If you plan to have multiple screenings, be sure to purchase that number of PPLs.
  • Why do I need to purchase a Public Performance License (PPL) to show the film at a conference or public venue (outside of classes/educational settings)?
    The Federal Copyright Act (Title 17 of the US Code) governs how copyrighted materials, such as movies, may be used. The purchase of a copyrighted work does not carry the right to publicly “exhibit” or show the work. This legal requirement applies regardless of whether an admission fee is charged, whether the institution or organization is commercial or nonprofit, or whether a federal or state agency is involved.
  • What is a Digital Site License (DSL)? Note: a DSL is included in the College/University purchase price.
    DSLs allows a college/university to host the films in the Kit in a private/password protected server or cloud. The digital site license provides access to the film for the life of the file format. You must have a password protected server or cloud at your college/university, or use a third-party platform, to stream the film. This license allows for all university affiliates (affiliates defined as current students, staff, and faculty) to view the film individually or in a group-setting for classroom and library use.
  • Does the DSL allow us to hold a campus event with the film?
    No, campus wide events require an additional Public Performance License (PPL) and fee. Any public viewing on campus, such as student organizations hosting a viewing for university affiliates, or playing the film on a campus theater for university affiliates, necessitates the purchase of this PPL license.
  • Can I show the film to an audience online (ie “virtually”) instead of in person?
    You are not permitted to create an online event using the film downloaded from the Kit. Contact studio@mrockproductions.com if you would like to create an online event.
  • Can I show the film at our conference if I purchase the Education Kit and a PPL?
    Yes, provided you will not have an audience larger than 500 people. Contact studio@mrockproductions.com for pricing if you anticipate an audience larger than 500 people.
  • Can I charge admission to attend a virtual screening?
    No, at this time you cannot charge admission to attend a virtual screening.
  • Is this film appropriate for kids?
    Age-appropriateness is subjective, but MROCK Productions believes the film is appropriate for grades 6 and up.
  • Can Directors Matt Moyer & Amy Toensing or other people featured in the film speak at our event, either in person, virtually, or by pre-recorded video?
    Yes, members of the film team do speaking engagements, for additional fees. To learn more about availability and costs, please contact us at studio@mrockproductions.com.
  • Can I charge admission to attend an in-person screening?
    Yes, once you purchase the Kit and PPL, you may provide the screening for free; charge for tickets; or take donations. The film screening may be used as a fundraising event.
  • Can I share my Education Kit throughout my school district or college network?
    The Kit can be used at up to three different college campuses (or K-12 school buildings) within a single college or school district. The Kit materials must be shared via a non-public/password protected drive or server. If you’d like to use the Kit more broadly, you will need to purchase additional Kits. Note that the video(s) must be shared from one central protected drive or server: duplication of any of our video materials, or uploads to any public platform (ie YouTube, Vimeo) is strictly prohibited and would constitute a copyright violation. National and international online universities should contact studio@mrockproductions.com for pricing.
  • Can we rent out a movie theater for a screening event?
    Yes, if you make arrangements to rent out a local theater, we can deliver the Digital Cinema Package (DCP) that the theater will very likely need. However, there will be an additional cost for delivery of that DCP. Contact studio@mrockproductions.com to learn more.
  • I just want to show this to my friends or family, is it streaming somewhere?
    Not yet! We are currently self-distributing the film through the Kit, film festivals and Impact Campaign events. But be sure to sign up for our email list to be notified when the film is more widely available.
  • Is there a DVD available?
    No, at this time we are distributing the film and Kit as a digital file only.
  • Can I preview the film before purchase?
    Yes, you may contact studio@mrockproductions.com for a full length preview if needed. Please note that online previews are to be shared with up to five decision-making people, and may not be used for any educational or professional use or shared publicly in any manner.
