CERN and its experiments have been the focus of innumerable documentary television productions, news spots, and other forms of media.  However, until now no film about the search for the Higgs Boson has been made for theatrical release, in the classical documentary tradition.

 "Particle Fever" has received numerous awards and traveled to festivals around the world, where it has consistently played to sell-out audiences.  The film will begin a commercial theatrical run in the United States in early 2014, but CERN people have the chance to see an avant-première in the
