A Feature Film Grounded in UNáTI: The Healing Power of the Performing Arts

I am very happy and grateful to announce that I have been selected as director of and a producer for the independent feature film, TUCHT, an UNáTI Independent FilmWorks production with support from the makers of the OSCAR-winning films ABOUT SCHMIDT, ALI, & A BEAUTIFUL MIND. (View our Teaser & Featurette Trailers).

TUCHT is a raw, gritty psycho-thriller/dark-comedy inspired by the true-story of eight (8) remarkable lives that depicts - unflinchingly - the exigent social welfare issue of child abuse, and its related issues of suicidal-depression, mental illness, domestic violence, and homicidal-tendencies. TUCHT shares a powerful message: UNCONDITIONAL LOVE & FORGIVENESS can heal even the most horrific of human conditions to break the shackles of being a slave to the past.

Note: Best to watch FULL-SCREEN in HD
at the highest resolution your screen can handle.

It's not typical for a feature film to have TWO directors (But here is a short video about some great films that do!), and this speaks to the collaboration spirit of the writer/director of TUCHT, Alex Molina, as a leader in pioneering change in cinema by choosing a woman to co-direct and using the art of UNáTI. UNáTI comes from the Sanskrit language and means "The Healing Power of the Performing Arts."

I am on the brink of success as a creator/producer/director/writer with two (2) projects. They are: 1) An ORIGINAL TELEVISION SERIES based on my idea and a pilot script for which deal memos and contracts are necessary for an interested production company to formally option and develop it, and to formalize my screen credits and role in the production when it's picked up by a broadcaster. Also, my agreement with the screenwriter needs to be revised and negotiated. The pilot script has been described as "Couldn't put it down" and "riveting!" (READ MORE at GoFundMe.Com)
