'AUGUST' follows Tom Sterling (Josh Hartnett) as an aggressive, young dotcom entrepreneur who fights to keep his start-up company afloat.

The cast and filmmakers will be ringing The Closing Bell at the NYSE on Friday, July 11th, 2008 at 4:00PM EST. Josh Harnett will ring the bell while surrounded by cast and producers from 57th & Irving Productions, Periscope, and Original Media.
