RPJ Client’s Film “Unrest” Makes Oscars Shortlist

It was announced last week that the documentary film Unrest, produced by RPJ client Lindsey Dryden, is on the shortlist for the 2018 Academy Awards. Unrest is a personal documentary about Harvard PhD candidate Jennifer Brea’s journey with the largely unknown myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), more commonly called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and how she was able to use social media to connect with others across the globe also suffering from the syndrome to better cope and understand the illness. The film premiered at Sundance Film Festival last January and has since been shown and won awards at several festivals across the country.

RPJ provided legal services for the film and is thrilled for our client’s success!
