American: The Bill Hicks Story North American Premiere at SXSW

American: The Bill Hicks Story will be shown at the South by Southwest festival in Austin Texas on March 15th and March 20th.

From the official American: The Bill Hicks Story site:

We are extremely proud to announce that AMERICAN The Bill Hicks Story has been invited to hold its North American premiere at SXSW!

Bill has a very strong cult following in the US, but nowhere more so than Austin, and as British filmmakers, we are very excited to be taking the story of one of America’s most important cultural icons back to his homeland.

The SXSW festival is one of America’s leading festivals, and runs from the 12th – 20th March. We are pleased to be mentioned in their opening paragraph, alongside Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s Micmacs, Michel Gondry’s The Thorn in the Heart, and Steven Soderbergh’s And Everything Is Going Fine.
