Death or Taxes Contest!

My film, Death or Taxes, will be featured at the LA Film + Music Weekend, on March 26, and I want you to join me! The screening will take place at 3:35 pm, at Laemmle Theaters in Beverly Hills, CA.

The documentary explores the horrifying realities faced by the millions of taxpayers who owe back taxes. Facing awful situations, the IRS can push some people to the limit. The star of the documentary, Richard Hatch, has been in the media lately because of his ongoing tax problems. So, now I want to hear your tax horror story. Go to DeathorTaxes.com and Share Your Story. You can upload a video to Youtube and submit the clip via the Death Or Taxes website, or you can send your written entries here.

I will select my five favorite stories, and each winner will be given two general admission tickets to the March 26 Death or Taxes showing. Unfortunately, no transportation will be provided, you must be able to arrange your own accommodations.

Contest Rules:

The winners of the contest will be selected by Roni Deutch and her marketing team.

By participating, you agree that should you be declared one of the prize winners, Roni Deutch may announce your name, city, and state on her or her companies’ websites/blog(s).
