The Pavilion

Louisville, Kentucky, 1943. In a time of war and madness, a young Italian-American girl and an Italian prisoner of war, escape into an unlikely and forbidden relationship; a love affair that will be shattered by the dark secrets they each possess.

Set during World War II, "The Pavilion" is a love story between an Italian POW, housed at Fort Knox, Kentucky, and an Italian-American girl who lives in the nearby town of Louisville.

The film is based on true historical events and while it is primarily a bittersweet love story, it contains overtones of racism and intolerance. It is a historically accurate expression of the time and place.

The film also contains scenes of intense action, concluding in a surprising and glorious climax. "The Pavilion" portrays a facet of World War II that has never been depicted in film. In fact, the history of foreign POWs housed at American army bases is practically unknown.

Stick of Glory

An absent-minded inventor, Babe Ruth and magical trading card chewing gum help a ragtag Brooklyn Little League team of misfits defy the odds to win the city Little League championship.

Although centered around the world of Little League Baseball, at its core this comedy-drama is a morality tale of strong values, honesty, belief in one's own abilities, family and work ethic; of young love and new love, and of overcoming seemingly overwhelming obstacles to achieve a once-in-a-lifetime goal.
