Florida Premiere

Highgate Park : More local news and events from in and around the Highgate Park Davenport area as “Hope for a Thorn,” written and directed by UCF alumna Erin Kitzinger, will have its Florida Premiere at the Gasparilla International Film Festival on March 20. During its world premiere at the LA Femme Film Festival in Los Angeles in October, the film received the Best Feature Director award.

When a troubled grandmother finds herself the guardian of the granddaughter whom she’s never met, she is forced to finally face her past. While each is fighting loss, loneliness, and madness, their only chance for redemption is each other. Shot entirely in the Orlando area during summer 2007, “Thorn” utilized local cast and a combination of student and professional crew to complete the 74-minute film.

“Hope for a Thorn” is one of the first feature films produced through UCF’s new Entrepreneurial Digital Cinema Master of Fine Arts program. The unique graduate program requires its students to finance and produce micro-budget digital feature films. Kitzinger graduated from the program in August 2008.
