INTRO  

Dear Supporters: GERALD is a superb short narrtive written by the talented Rosario Pellerito. I read the script in late 2010 and our team worked for over a year to make sure this short film was developed, financed, and executed. The result- we created an entertaining short film that is sure to be a film festival hit. Thanks for your interest and support of GERALD. We hope that you enjoy the film and are truly inspired. Best, Film Director, Owner Jnine Media Jenn Shaw
