WHY MAKE THIS FILM?
"Cultivating a Cinematic Culture of Compassion, One Story at a Time."
My mission as a filmmaker is to produce socially conscious films that reveal the often untold stories of our subculture. By embracing internationalism and shedding light on the different social aspects of the world, we will cultivate a cinematic culture that inspires dialogue for understanding, acceptance and compassion.
As a muti-cultural female filmmaker these are the types of stories I am committed to creating and I find nothing more exciting than aligning myself with other female filmmakers that are as commited to telling these types of stories! Please help support our efforts in planting a beneficial seed into the soil of our world through this creative medium of cinema and help our film ONE MOMENT PLEASE become a reality.
The main themes in the three stories are connection and acceptance. The stories bring to light the idea that we are more connected and similar to one another than not. Imagine if we could do this on a global level, truly connect with one another, celebrate our differences and similarities, and accept ourselves and others just the way we are? What a world this could be.
Pina De Rosa is Co-Producer on this feature, that will bring together the critically acclaimed THE ENCOUNTER and THE UNTIMELY CONCURRENCE --- See More Here
