Originally released in February 2004 in one theater in Yelm, Washington, What
the BLEEP Do We Know!? went on to become the fifth highest grossing documentary
in the United States, with ticket sales of $12 Million. Shunned by all movie
distributors, the producers set about distributing and marketing the movie
themselves in a “proof of concept” strategy to show theater owners there was
indeed a market for spiritually oriented films that catered to audiences’
intelligence, not their lowest common denominator. Although rejected by every
major film festival (Sundance, Berlin, Toronto, Cannes, etc…),What the BLEEP
did get entered in five smaller festivals, and won in every one. This, along
with the grass roots, word-of-mouth campaign, kept the film in theaters for
weeks and months on end. After five months of surprising box office numbers,
the film attracted the attention of Samuel Goldwyn Films, and the producers
entered into a distribution deal. The word-of-mouth buzz
continued and the film showed real staying power (it played in one theater in
Phoenix for 40+ consecutive weeks). International distribution soon followed.
Currently the film is now theatrically distributed in over 35 countries
worldwide. A host of further developments followed. A series of conferences
was held featuring the speakers from the film, along with other notable leaders
in the consciousness arena.BLEEP study groups spontaneously arose around the
country, then the world, with people who did not want to let the ideas put
forth in the film die, and who wanted to investigate and discuss them with like
minded explorers. Bleep Study Groups continue to be formed around the world.
Two books followed, a soundtrack CD and finally the ultimate What the BLEEP DVD
– Down the Rabbit Hole, with two extended versions of the film, along with
hours of additional interviews. Called by the media “the little film that
could,” and “the critic proof movie,” What the BLEEP Do
We Know!? is considered the first break-out film in the genre of Spiritual
Cinema, and continues to find a new audience to this day.
