SUMMARY:U.S. Premiere Event of "The Answer" (which was filmed in the Valley)
DESCRIPTION:This Thanksgiving season\, honor the men in your life by seeing a locally-made\, award-winning film about them…and the friendships they have…\n6:30pm: Red Carpet / Meet the Cast & Crew\n7:30pm: Film \nPLEASE JOIN OUR CAST AND CREW for the U.S. Premiere of “The Answer”\, a film about friendship. Northampton was home base for the production\, so local writer/director Wade Wofford wanted its U.S. Premiere to be in the community that made it possible. From Noho-based fundraising\, to shooting on location in the area\, the Pioneer Valley played a pivotal role to the making of the film. Winner of the Rising Star Award at Canada International Film Festival\, this red-carpet event marks the first time the film will be shown on U.S. soil. \nThe Story:\nGavin loses his wife to a sudden car accident. He falls apart\, and finds his teaching career in jeopardy. His younger brother Harry organizes five of Gavin’s closest friends from different eras of his life – and the ensemble sets off to hike a 60-mile leg of the Appalachian Trail. Personalities clash. These men\, after all\, have only one thing in common: their friendship to Gavin. As they get deeper into the forest\, each man finds his own inner demons rising to the surface. \nTrailer:\nhttp://www.aomtheatre.com/event/the-answer-u-s-premiere/ \nOur cast and crew will be gussied up\, but feel free to dress casually. Bring your mother\, your cousins\, your friends. This is a film filled with humanity to conclude your giving of thanks with art\, humor and humanity. \nLocal Landmarks Featured in the film:\nSmith College\nUMass Amherst\nSouth Street & Bridge Street Neighborhoods\nAmherst Books\nPasta E Basta\nMount Tom\nCzelusniak Funeral Home\n…and featuring countless Pioneer Valley residents as extras!
