............... (Please feel free to donate more than the minimum suggestion)Illumination Light Productions & LA Femme Film Festival have joined forces to bring this year’s LA Femme Film Festival attendees a stand-alone fundraising screening and Q & A with the filmmakers of the short films “The Seedling,” one of the most talked about short films in cinematic history, and "ANGLE" which also premiered in Cannes Film Festival, followed by a special private reception. Due to its controversial and sensitive subject matter, “The Seedling” has garnered both international and domestic accolades and attention.
The star and co-writer Jacqueline Ann Finch is the epitome of what LA Femme’s Director Leslie LaPage had in mind when she conceptualized the festival for women. The LA Femme Film Festival has been honored to bring attention to some of the most artistic, thought provoking and dramatic films created today by extremely talented filmmakers such as Jacqueline Ann Finch. “The Seedling” is directed by Emmy Award winning director Chris Ross Leong.
“The Seedling” has the support and backing of one of America’s largest charities, “RAINN”. A portion of your ticket sales and donations will be going to RAINN to help support its mission.
“The Seedling” premiered at the Cannes Film Festival 2010; it was highly selected by the HollyShortsFilm Festival for a private screening, and the British Academy Short Film Showcase hosted an L.A. premiere screening. Filmmakers Alliance also invited “The Seedling” to screen in July. The trailer is available at www.theseedlingmovie.com/trailer to whet your appetite for this powerful film.LA Femme Film Festival is a premier festival that focuses on women filmmakers' platforming their commercial films for the worldwide audience.
