About Green Grass
Green Grass, a short film, deals with one of America’s most widely debated and hottest political issues – illegal immigration. Green Grass takes a look at two men on opposite sides of the issue, both fathers doing what they have to do for their families. Green Grass not only explores the immigration issue, but deals with the stresses of family responsibilities and is aimed at fostering open communication and exploring each side of the immigration issue in an effort to create greater understanding by all.
The screenplay for Green Grass has won Second Prize in the 2007 Vail Film Festival Screenwriting Competition and is currently entered into Moondance and the Woods Hole Film Festival. Green Grass has also been chosen by the Rhode Island Film Collaborative (RIFC) as their 2007 film project. Green Grass is currently scheduled to begin filming in early Summer 2007 in Hopkinton, MA, and Framingham, MA. The completed film is planned to be entered into the Sundance Film Festival, Slamdance, the London Film Festival, and several other U.S. and international film festivals.
