What a special night celebrating my friend @geller_marc and his film @americathefilm at @hollyshorts

America tackles the heartbreaking reality of gun violence in our schools and the fear it has brought into the lives of so many. I’m so glad I could be there to support Marc and this important story. Congratulations to the entire team! They were all so kind. 💕

What an honor to have @americathefilm presented on Opening Night at @hollyshorts ✨
My debut as a writer/director has been extraordinary so far, and I’m so grateful to everyone who believed in this film and helped bring it to life.

Thank you to my incredible producers, @vanessahudgens, @olivertrevena @gofordesiree @morgankei and so much love to our team of cast & crew who flew in to be there. Watching our film together on the big screen was an absolute dream. 🎬
