Old Towne shows up for its own. 🧡🎬

A huge thank-you to Jack and our friends at The Potting Shed by Carlisle for continuing to support the Old Towne Film Festival and the creative community we’re building together.

When you join us October 23–25, don’t just come for the films—experience Old Towne. Shop, eat, explore, meet the people behind these local businesses, and come back long after the festival ends.

Come for the stories. Stay for the towne. Keep supporting local.

Very excited to announce that “5TH” will have its California premiere next Friday, October 23rd at the Old Towne Film Festival in Orange, CA.

Doubly exciting is that I am taking part in the festival’s inaugural Storytelling Night, where I will be giving a talk about how making this film led to growth and change in ways both creative and personal.

Thank you to Dan Parks at OTFF for giving me this opportunity to share the art and the story that so many talented people worked so hard to bring to fruition. As always, thank you to each and every person who worked on this picture 🥲🙏🙌🎞️
