On March 19, Quantum Project, the Internet feature film produced by Metafilmics and starring Stephen Dorff, Fay Masterson and John Cleese, will have its theatrical premiere at Pittsburgh’s Star City Cinemas.

This is a natural extension for SightSound Technologies, as it has been our goal from the beginning to create digital distribution solutions for the motion picture industry, said Scott Sander, president and CEO of SightSound Technologies in a press release. We see this as an opportunity to implement an economically efficient solution for the content owners as well as the theater owners.
