Surrender Dorothy

Some roads you take --may not lead to the most meaningful purpose for your life! 
This clip is  from a a film now in pre-production called Surrender Dorothy.  My name is Gina Miller.  I wrote the screenplay and I am also producing the film.
Surrender Dorothy is about a young woman trying to navigate the sometimes crazy world of Hollywood., she's wants desperately to be respected as a writer, a storyteller, but she is struggling to find her true voice ... the truth is ... Hollywood is not her problem. It's Her secrets that are shoved into a dark musty closet in a small town in Texas where a tragic event occurred in her teenage years, and she has chosen not deal with her pain & grief.
I wrote this story based on many events in my life and many many others.  This film explores the secrets we keep deep in our hearts and the damage it causes. But with the HOPE that if you surrender your grip on your inner pain, you can find happiness!
Now although Surrender Dorothy is a drama, there are some very funny moments because quite frankly the root of most comedy is pain!  So no matter how painful life is -- we can't help but laugh at some of the ridiculous situations we get ourselves into! 
I would say the main message of Surrender Dorothy is even though someone nearly destroys your life you can still feel love for them, forgive them, move on and surrender the pain. Because when you forgive with your whole heart you just may have fulfilled your purpose in life. 
And don't let the title confuse you ...Surrender Dorothy is not about giving up, it's about embracing what is and moving forward with pride --- being bold & unafraid of the judgment of others. It's the greatest freedom you can have. 
I know deep down there is a large group of people who will relate to this story, this film. So many who have painful secrets they keep locked away deep in their hearts, and never speak of. That's why I'm reaching out to the World -- to you to help me make this film! 
To start discussions and to be a part of the film in some way if you'd like? I've included some great incentives and perks for this campaign but above all ... I want to thank you in advance for your support ! It means so much!
