JPod based on the novel by Douglas Coupland - BookShort Video Trailer

http://www.bookshorts.cm/ -- BookShorts, the production and distribution company specializing in short films based on books, in association with Vintage Canada, are thrilled to announce the world theatrical premiere of the 4-minute short film JPod. This short is based on the novel of the same name by international bestselling author Douglas Coupland; the book is now available in trade paperback.

The 4-minute JPod BookShort centres on Ethan Jarlewskis stunted efforts to win the amorous attentions of new girl Kaitlin Boyce, an unwilling recruit to the cult of video game programmers. Consummated with a kiss that is the epitome of modern love, Ethan indoctrinates Kaitlin into the amoral morass that is JPod.

South by Southwest Film Festival screens JPod Saturday, March 10**2007. For more info visit http://www.bookshorts.com/watch_jpod.htm .
