Ruyak Media's "The Not-Dying Girl" Selected for the 2020 Portland Film Festival

Great News From the Portland Film Festival

We learned this week that the Portland Film Festival has “updated the Judging Status“ of our submission The Not-Dying Girl to “selected.” This is awesome news, and we can’t wait to see what happens next!

The documentary becomes available at 12:00 PDT on October 12th. To pre-order, play the trailer or learn more about the film, visit the The Not-Dying Girl page on the Portland Film Festival website.

In The Not-Dying Girl, Lauren McCullough uses a blog, a bucket list and her inspirational voice to campaign for childhood cancer awareness and to fight her own disease.

Now in its 8th year, the Portland Film Festival is known as “one of the coolest film festivals in the world.” The festival runs from October 12th to 18th, with jury prizes in a variety of categories.
