Austin-made indie favorite Dear Pillow will hit the shelves tomorrow in DVD form (courtesy of Heretic Films), and tonight the Austin School of Film will host a party to celebrate the occasion.

Written and Directed by Bryan Poyser (who we interviewed about his latest short Grammy's during SXSW), Dear Pillow tells the story of a 17-year-old boy whose obsession with sex leads him to an uncomfortable friendship with a creepy middle-aged neighbor. It's a dark coming-of-age story that John Pierson called "the best first feature out of Austin in a decade."

A two-time Texas Filmmakers' Production Fund recipient, Dear Pillow premiered at Slamdance before moving on to countless other festivals (including SXSW and Edinburgh) and winning a whole bunch of awards (including an Independent Spirit Award and a Best of the Fest award at Edinburgh). In other words, this movie is all kinds of awesome, and you'd be crazy not to attend tonight's party and pick up a copy.

If you can't make it out to the party tonight, you can always order it from Amazon. Or better yet, you can enter your name and email below for your chance to win a copy!

This contest is now closed. Thanks to all who entered!
