You are Invited! 46 days and counting till the US premier of Spirit of Love which will be held at The Texas Christian Film festival in Houston.
NBA player Mike “Stinger” Glenn
plays himself in this wonderful film inspired by his real life Basketball camps
for the Deaf & Hard of Hearing. In a unique casting, deaf & hard of
hearing, and hearing actors work together and deliver a film which is
authentic, charming, competitive, funny, and challenging.
Spirit of Love is a diverse
coming of age story. A group of misfit teens arrive at the 33rd
annual basketball camp, which is the first time girls will attend the camp.
Some come with hoop dreams, while others are trying to survive tumultuous
teenage angst.
Alexi arrives angry and at odds
with his Dad Coach Phil, while Ford wants everyone to know he’s more than Deaf,
and Maddie thinks everyone sees her as a freak. Not only do they learn life
lessons through the game of basketball, they soon learn what it means to soar
like Eagles, Win or Lose.
Spirit of Love will motivate,
encourage, uplift and inspire all audiences.
The film features an amazing
score by Alex Grant and a beautiful title song “Spirit of Love” co-written by Producer,
Director Darla Rae & Nashville’s 2012 Inspirational Female vocalist of the
year Laura Dodd and is performed by Dodd, who also appears as herself in the
film.
The film was filmed in 14 days with
a team of 20 ASL interpreters.
