East coast premiere of “Rolling” at Eastern PA Film Festival
The NEPA Rainbow Alliance announced the East Coast premiere of the independent film, “Rolling” will take place at its inaugural Film Festival to being held September 28-30, 2007 with venues in Scranton and Wilkes-Barre.
The film, with screenplay by Scranton native Cody Parrish Thompson, will premiere on Saturday, Sept. 29th at R/C Theatre’s Wilkes-Barre Movies 14 at 7:00 p.m., followed by a question/answer period and release afterparty at the 12 Penny Saloon in Moosic.
According to Thompson, “Drawing upon a variety of documentary filmmaking techniques, Rolling breaks new ground by creating a unique faux documentary. Utilizing the form of a docudrama, cinema verite style footage entwines with personal testimonials rendering a fictional chronicle, which captures the appeal of the drug Ecstasy.”
The film follows a diverse group of users as they cross paths in Los Angeles. At its core, Rolling is an investigation into a generation’s drug of choice. It is a dramatized expose of the current state of a cultural phenomenon that has grown tremendously over the past two decades. Rolling simultaneously authenticates a specifically twisted consciousness while relating to a broad audience with an eye for detail and human behavior.
