Where ‘Sex and the City’ Ends, ‘Hot Flash Havoc’ Begins
Washington, D.C. takes a break from business as usual with the premier of a controversial new film on menopause – “Hot Flash Havoc”
(Los Angeles) September 9, 2010 –Phyllis Greenberger, executive director for the Society for Women’s Health Research (www.swhr.org), has forged a new partnership between health advocates and the world of entertainment. In honor of National Menopause Awareness Month, Ms. Greenberger is joining forces with the filmmakers of the controversial new documentary; “Hot Flash Havoc” (www.hotflashhavoc.com). A premier screening will be held on September 28, 2010, at Burke Theatre in Washington D.C. at 6:30p.m.
Several of the film’s nationally recognized experts including Dr. Alan Altman, Dr. Pamela Peeke and Susan Wysocki, RNC, head of the National Association of Nurse Practitioners, will gather immediately after the screening for an informative discussion on the film’s key issues.
“Hot Flash Havoc” encourages everyone, including the experts, to break the silence of modern culture, speak up and reveal the truth that has remained shrouded in mystery for far too long. “Hot Flash Havoc” is the definitive voice on menopause delivering this message of truth and enlightenment to the nearly 100,000, 000 peri-menopausal or menopausal women in the United States alone. Washington D.C. healthcare providers along with policy makers will be offered the very first look.
The film is circumventing a Hollywood release and instead is going directly into the hands of women’s health advocates, care givers and policy makers in Washington D.C. These are the stakeholders who can make the difference and increase educational access on a national level. The grassroots initiative has already started and the Havoc has only just begun.
The Society for Women’s Health Research is breaking the rules by using this movie as a tool to reach men and women alike with the hope of making a difference on this important issue through research, health policy and media exposure.
Warner Brother’s famed blockbuster, “Sex and the City 2″ took menopause out of the closet and onto the screen. “Hot Flash Havoc” goes one step further shedding light on a decade of misguided facts, conveying poignant personal stories and providing the truth about women’s options. The film addresses the challenges of making empowering choices in the “Second Act” of a woman’s life in an entertaining and enlightening way. It’s a hard, fast, funny and compassionate exploration of women in menopause at all ages and stages of life.
“Remember as one doctor said – this is not a solo journey. Whatever is happening to her is happening to you, so you better hope it’s pleasant,” said Heidi Houston, Executive Producer of “Hot Flash Havoc.”
