I think the best genre films always have a very morally profound theme, which elevates the entire story to another level. The theme of 3 Lives develops around two central questions: How do people cope with their past? And - in the context of the worldwide increase of sexual assaults reported in the media - does gender make a difference for the severity of the crime? When talking to different women’s help organizations during our research process we realized how gender-specifically our world deals with the accounting of assaults. With 3 Lives we want to create a compelling story of three people stranded In the wilderness, battling to survive while the answer to these questions will determine their fate. Visually the forest will stand for the wild and for the unknown each of us has to battle every day. If the audience leaves the theatre, after a good hour and a half of entertainment, and thinks even a little bit about these questions and what they might mean for themselves - we have achieved everything we were hoping for. 3 LIVES 5 CAST Mhari Isla Calvey| ‘Emma’ the UK.Mhairi spent two years the town she’s moved to.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 4, 1987; Designation List 194 LP-1311 BROOKS ATKINSON THEATER (originally Mansfield Theater), 256-262 West 47th Street, Manhattan. Built 1925-26; architect Herbert J. Krapp. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1018, Lot 57. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Brooks Atkinson Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (I tern No. 7). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. Two witnesses spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has · received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Brooks Atkinson Theater survives today as one of the historic theaters that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built during the mid-1920s, the Brooks Atkinson was among the half-dozen theaters constructed by the Chanin Organization, to the designs of Herbert J. Krapp, that typified the development of the Times Square/Broadway theater district. Founded by Irwin S. Chanin, the Chanin organization was a major construction company in New York. During the 1920s, Chanin branched out into the building of theaters, and helped create much of the ambience of the heart of the theater district.
