TURBO film projection

27 May 2009 by yannito posted in anecdotes

Jérôme andPalmito were in Hollywood at Paramount studios and attended the first public projection of TURBO, a futuristic movie in which many characters wear Parasite sunglasses. www.turbothemovie.com

4 “big shorts” were presented that night, and 700 people linked with the world of Cinema attended this event.

Before and after the projection, people visited booths where the 4 short films were getting promoted… and so were Parasite sunglasses ! Parasite eyewear reached great success that night, as guests were curious before viewing TURBO, and directly asked us for Parasite stickers after the projection.

This journey in Hollywood has also been an opportunity to meet the TURBO team mates. We feel that we have so much things to share… Ideas and projects in common will follow ! To be continued…

…And here are some pictures taken from the film. It is kind of an ideal universe for Parasite, as all characters who wear sunglasses in it wear… Parasite of course !

Turbo hero’s name is Hugo, just as Parasite’s boss.



The Turbo main characters fight against each other in a ultra realistic video game. During the movie you can easily guess that Sunglasses allow the fighters to get a higher level of perception in the game.






During the fights, many spectators of the game also wear Parasite sunglasses…

Thank you to all the TURBO team, and we would like to give a special thank to Jarrett and Garrett, the 2 “Brothas From Anotha Motha” !
