SOMA GIRLS Airs on WGBH/Boston!!!

SOMA GIRLS is screening in many major markets nationwide on PBS today, 4:30 EST. Check your local listings!!! :)

It will also screening in select markets throughout the month. The best way to find out if it’s going to air in your market is to check your listings daily until mid-April. I know that’s a lot to ask, but the list we got of stations airing the film is too long to add here!

So many thanks to everyone for your support!

We are thrilled to announce that SOMA GIRLS will be receiving a PBS broadcast! The film is being distributed by NETA: National Educational Telecommunications Association. Showings will begin in March 2012 on selected stations nationwide, and the film will remain on the NETA broadcasting system until Feb 2015! So there might be many, many more chances to see it on TV!
