Theodore James, left, and Michael Barnett are behind Superheroes, a documentary about the real-life superhero movement, which was one of the success stories at this year's festival. The film picked up rave reviews, numerous inquiries from distributors and won the festival's Theatrical Release award, which guarantees that the film will be shown in 12 U.S. theaters (though the offers coming in from the distribution companies will probably make this moot.)
