Hope for a Thorn will be having its Gulf Coast premiere at the Gasparilla International Film Festival in Tampa!
We’re really excited to be coming to Tampa to screen the film in March. I grew up just across the bridge in St. Pete, so this will be a great opportunity for friends, families, and the other people who made this film possible to attend, many seeing the film for the first time. (Plus, as it’s still 30 degrees and snowy in Chicago, Florida’s not the worst place to go for a few days in March).
GIFF is one of Florida’s largest and fastest growing film festivals. Organized and operated by the non-profit Tampa Film Institute, the fest is dedicated to expanding art opportunities in the Tampa Bay community through the medium and culture of independent film. GIFF’s specific mission statement is to promote opportunities for film makers and film fans alike to create and enjoy independent film in the Tampa Bay area.
The festival will run March 18 – 21. We’re really excited to be a part of it and Jay and I will both be attending the screening.
More information regarding screening date, time, and location coming soon.
Check out the GIFF site for more information. And be sure to check out our trailer on the GIFF site.
