An old friend of mine in the UK is making a movie, Katherina, which I am looking forward to seeing. It’s about Saint Catherine of Alexandria, who was famously martyred by being broken on a wheel for challenging church authorities in 329AD.

He’s put together a great teaser trailer based on what’s been shot so far, and he asked me how he should go about promoting it, as I know this online video stuff.

A few years ago the answer would be to pay for some expensive hosting and hope that not too many people downloaded it, but it struck me that this was a chance to show how things are different now.

I convinced him to use a Creative Commons license on the trailer, and I’ve put up a high-quality Bittorrent of the Katherina trailer.

So, download it, tell your friends, and tag any comments with spikedwheel.

I downloaded the trailer and the movie looks great… Plus, the use of Creative Commons for this is pretty awesome too.

I note that Freddie Jones is in the film – he’s always been one of my favourite actors since the days of Firefox!

Anyway, help spread the word, grab the torrent file and leave it open for a while – let it seep around the web for a bit…
