    Festival partners with Verde Valley Sanctuary for film, discussion and reception

    Sedona Internatonal Film FestivalSedona AZ (September 25, 2020) – The Verde Valley Sanctuary has been experiencing a “hell of a heartache”, missing our community for the past several months. After what seems like forever, we are coming back out of the shadows.

    The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to partner with Verde Valley Sanctuary to present the one-day-only encore return of “Hell of a Heartache” on Saturday, Oct. 3 at 4 and 7 p.m. at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

    Filmed entirely in the Verde Valley, using all local cast and crew, “Hell of a Heartache” premiered to rave audience reviews at the recent Sedona International Film Festival.

    “Hell of a Heartache” is an epic tale of a family torn apart by domestic violence. It is returning to Sedona for this special event in observance of National Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

    “We cannot allow this issue to remain in hiding as the need continues every day for the service we provide,” said Nicole Florisi, Executive Director of the Verde Valley Sanctuary. “We are hosting this as a fundraising event to provide for immediate needs of the Verde Valley sanctuary.”

    About the film:

    Bobby Thompson is a down-and-out, hard-partying country music singer. His wild and reckless ways are interrupted when he learns he might have a 12-year-old daughter. When she is dumped off unexpectedly at his motel room one day, Bobby’s life takes a sudden new turn.

    An engaging Q & A with Rob Burson (the film’s director and star), Nicole Florisi (Executive Director of the Verde Valley Sanctuary) and Jerald Monahan (Chief of Police Yavapai College) will be held after both screenings.

    The event will also feature a reception with catering and delightful delicacies will be provided by Phyllis Cline.

    “Hell of a Heartache” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre at 4 and 7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 3. Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members, with proceeds benefiting the Verde Valley Sanctuary.

    For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.

    What Would I Change?
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    What would I change if I could? You and I both know I can’t, but it’s a fun exercise anyway. I would have been less of a know-it-all on my spiritual journey. It seems to be a side-effect of the path. Spiritual folks develop an all-knowing buffer to protect against their inevitable surrender to the unknown, but understanding that now didn’t make it gentler on me or those I loved, let alone those that I deemed not capable of getting it 😉 Yeah … I’d have dropped the spiritual snob act. I’d have recognized that spiritual radicals are only different on the outside from radical right Christians, and that the surface doesn’t really matter as much as I thought. We are all doing our couldn’t be otherwise things, playing our perfect roles. I’d have learned to bow down humbly before my fellow man, regardless of whether I agreed with him or not. We’re all in this together and not one of us will get out alive. Read more→
