Swiped Right

Swiped Right is now screening!!!!

Swiped Right is off to a fantastic start on the festival circut.

We have started the festival circut  and it is being  screened privately at the AGR Best Of on 6/8/17.  Also, because of the strong audience reaction it is going to be made into a full length feature .

On May 20th, Swiped Right had it's world premiere  at the Hoboken International Film Festival . It was bestowed the honor of being nominated for The Audience Choice Award.( Only 5 of the 150 films were selected)

Getting our film ready to embark on the festival circut  took immense resources and countless hours of post-production work.
