No Trespassing, My First Short Film

April 11, 2008 by Holly in film  

no trespassing I usually keep my creative endeavors pretty secret until there is something super exciting to say about it and this is most definitely super exciting!

I wrote a vignette last year that I had never thought to do much with, especially since most of what I write ends up decaying on my hard drive, but upon meeting and speaking with filmmaker Dany Nieves, we spoke about my writing and he expressed much interest in my piece ‘No Trespassing.’ A month later, I am extremely proud to present the trailer for No Trespassing; the full film is due out on May 11. This film stars Anh Le (so no, that isn’t me in the film) and is produced by 307 Idea Factory.

This film is about child abuse, healing and having the courage to let go of your past and move on to a much brighter future.

There are some other creative endeavors in the works that will be surfacing here in the next few months, so watch for those and I will also be posting updates about No Trespassing as they happen.

  • That's very deep what you have done... it's a beautiful piece! You are very talented in capturing the moment, and relaying the expressions. Unfortunately, a lot of these kinds of things happens in the family, and a lot of the times, people grow up without having the healing part of it all. That's the saddest part, but nowadays, it's being recognized more and more.

    It is a great little piece, I can't wait to see more.
  • First of all, I want to let you know how greatly I appreciate your blog's existence; I am an avid reader. Secondly, I am quite fond of this post and really like this video. Lastly, on the same notes of violence against women, i came across an article that I believe might interest you: http://yementimes.com/article.shtml?i=1117&...
    Try not to get too upset when you read it. Keep up the good work, and thanks again!
  • Well, Congratulations, Holly! That would be exciting!

    I can't add much new... That short piece is great. I'd definitely like to see it once it's available.
  • I really appreciate your blog. The captures are very interesting and of a family type where everyone has it, which ends up in a healing way. The video was a very good one where we come to know about the women's feelings.
  • Super Congrats on getting a movie. Its not everyday that someone who is out posting relevant topics about social justice issues receives a bit of lime light. I'll be looking forward for the release.
  • Congratulations!
  • I'm excited for you!
  • I mean that I'm excited for the fruition of a creative project. I don't mean to undermine the seriousness of your topic.

    I admire your perseverence in writing about topics that need to be brought out in the light. So many people, myself included sometimes, can't bear to have them front and center. You are like a warrior standing out in front and fighting the fight for us. And hopefully, when we are able, we can stand with you and help.
  • Great video. Child abuse is an important subject to me so I really applaud what you've done.
