The London-Based International Film Festival Will Feature the MangoRx Short Film Competition Focused on Mental Health and Erectile Dysfunction
DALLAS, Sept. 14, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- MangoRx, an e-commerce company focused on developing a variety of men's health and wellness products including its uniquely formulated erectile dysfunction (ED) drug branded "Mango," today announced it will be the headline sponsor for the thirty-first edition of the Raindance Film Festival, the UK's leading indie film festival. Raindance returns to the heart of London's West End from October 25 through November 4, 2023.
As the headline sponsor of the 2023 festival, MangoRx will have a strong presence throughout the festival's various programming including an orange carpet takeover at all celebrity carpet events, a MangoRx 60-second short film competition, hosted panels from Mango's' team of experts, and even a signature MangoRx themed cocktail.
Through its partnership with Raindance, MangoRx increases awareness around sexual health in film and helps remove the stigma around erectile dysfunction. MangoRx will host a new 60-second short film competition, with short filmmakers challenged to focus on mental health and its connection to ED. MangoRx additionally supports Raindance's UK Premiere of Venice Film Festival prize-winner Mountain Onion, which follows a young boy from Kazakhstan on his mission to China to find "Gold Viagra" in the hope of saving his parents' failing marriage.
"Here at Raindance, we're not afraid to show features and documentaries that tackle challenging issues," said Raindance Founder Elliot Grove. "I believe that film is one of the best ways to communicate, and through Raindance's partnership with MangoRx, we have an opportunity to encourage a discourse about mental health, sexual health, and ED. I'm also excited that Raindance is challenging short filmmakers to focus on mental health and ED with our MangoRx 60-second short film competition."
"Our partnership with Raindance Film Festival brings attention to issues surrounding men's physical and mental health through award-winning storytelling," said MangoRx CEO Jacob Cohen. "While MangoRx is currently distributed throughout the United States, destigmatizing erectile dysfunction remains a prevalent global conversation. This strategic partnership provides a broader audience ahead of our new international market distribution while supporting the arts."
