Chicago FEEDBACK Film Festival
Toronto, Los Angeles…..and now CHICAGO. LOGAN Cinemas in midtown Chicago.
Although I wasn’t available to attend the festival itself, I am VERY delighted that Chicago P.I. was chosen as the winning TV pilot script. The festival’s actors did a superb job performing a table read of my project and posting it on-line. Thank you. I will certainly enter this festival again.

I had a great experience with The Chicago FEEDBACK Film Festival! Having my script read by their talented actors and providing a recording of that reading was invaluable in the process of moving the project forward! I highly recommend this festival!!!

SECOND ACT PROGRAM – Best of CHICAGO
SATURDAY, 9min., USA/Iran, Drama
Directed by Pegah Pasalar
As the viewer follows a joyful trip to the beach by a family with three young children, innocence and happiness give way to the unthinkable. While the day unfolds on-screen, the audience comes to realize, through subtle audiovisual cues, that a tragedy has occurred: one of the three children has drowned. Decisions are made in a state of shock, and the blurred lines between the rational and irrational interrupt and fragment the journey back home. The parents opt to bring their dead son back in the same car with the two other children pretending as if he is sleeping.
