Film Festival Screening of Pinellas Film
The Gasparilla International Film Festival is having a screening of the film Misconceptions on Friday, September 26 at Eckerd College. The event takes place in the Miller Auditorium at 7 p.m. A discussion with Producer/Director Ron Satlof will take place after.
The screening is free. Some information about the film:
The film was shot in and around Pinellas County by Oscar and Emmy- nominated Producer/Director Ron Satlof, a Pinellas resident.
The story centers on a religiously conservative, married southern woman who receives a message from God instructing her to act as a surrogate mother and carry a child for two married gay men who live in Boston - a Jewish doctor and and African-American dance choreographer. All “Hell” breaks loose when the African-American man comes to her home in the deep south to micro-manage her pregnancy, and he won’t leave.
Said director Satlof: “Regardless of where you are on the issue of gay marriage or religion in public life, this story has something for everybody.”
