WORCESTER, Mass. - Sept. 11, 2014 - PRLog -- Viewster Online Film Festival, the world's largest online film festival that will take place from September 11-25, 2014, has officially selected Justice Is Mind to participate. During this time Justice Is Mind will be available to stream for free while audiences vote online to select what films advance to the jury round. Finalist films will be eligible for a total cash award of $100,000.

“Having your film selected for any film festival is an honor, but one like Viewster that brings over 18 million unique visitors a month represents a tremendous opportunity to introduce Justice Is Mind to a worldwide audience,” said writer/director Mark Lund. “The future of independent filmmaking is online and Viewster makes it possible for films like Justice Is Mind to be seen.”

Set in the near future where advanced MRI technology can read your memory, Justice Is Mind follows businessman and restaurant owner Henri Miller who has been afflicted with unexplained headaches since childhood. When he has the new FVMRI procedure and it reveals that he has allegedly shot and killed two people, the trial of the century begins in which Miller is faced with his own memory at trial. But all is not as it seems as a dark family secret, held by Henri’s minister father Joseph, reveals itself in the courtroom.

“The theme for Viewster’s festival is ‘Be Afraid. Be Very Afraid’. Indeed, once audiences see what types of memories the mind holds in the movie it may give anyone pause when they see the real world advances of this science,” said Lund.

The original idea for Justice Is Mind came to Lund in 2009 when he saw a 60 Minutes episode on ‘thought Identification mind reading’ technology being developed at Carnegie Mellon University. In 2013, the year Justice Is Mind was released, The Atlantic published a story titled “Could the Government Get a Search Warrant for Your Thoughts.” It was just this past August in 2014 that a story in the International Business Times “Mind Reader: Meet The Man Who Records and Stores Your Thoughts, Dreams and Memories” reported on a company that is pioneering this technology.

To develop social media engagement, Viewster asks viewers to use the hashtag #VOFF. To stimulate engagement among the #VOFF viewers, Viewster will be running a contest where they are giving away a trip for two to London to the Raindance Film Festival. To be eligible tweet a link to your favorite entry (hopefully Justice Is Mind) along with a comment and the #VOFF3winatrip hashtag.
