Arts.Advocacy+Wellness: "Soft Focus"






I love a good indie film. Indie films tend to have much grit, edge, passion, flesh (Yes I have quite the carnal side from time to time).  And there are some indie films that  miss the bar of my sensual desires.  Nevertheless I appreciate, the person's courage and drive to get it done.  Well not to worry, there is no missing the bar in Soft Focus written, directed, and produced by filmmaker Rod Gailes.  Check it out, FREE screening on Vimeo.  It's rare that films of this high caliber are open for the public viewing with no cost.  Thanks Rod, cast, and crew and best of luck.

  1. Thanks for this, I heard about this movie whilst it was still in production but I forgot all its details, hence I could not find out if it was ever completed and where I would acquire it. You saved me a lot of effort and thank you again.
