Are you certain this was made for television? It was shown at several film festivals throughout 1989. I don’t think television productions are shown at film festivals. It seems no distributors were interested so it wound up being shown on PBS in 1990.
You are probably right, Dan, I removed the “Made for television” part from the description.
Thanks for the info.
