Awesome - are you able to explain a bit more about the setup you used to do
this - what software did you use, etc?

Have you thought about preparing a press-release for when the movie comes out
to do a bit of advocacy? Lots of people seemed to be impressed by the fact
that that Penguin OS was used for the iceberg film - I think this could be a
good "jewel" in the FreeBSD crown as an example of a real-world success story.
