"Ride the Wanted Trail".
By Director Rick Groat
We have worldwide distribution for our film with Nandar Entertainment.
Ride The Wanted Trail is an intended full feature western movie, 90 min, and loaded with western action, and an exciting original story that will have you wanting to get on your horse and ride along. It is a family friendly film that will not have any graphic sex or extreme bad language, but will be loaded with real western action, stunts, and only soft bad language from some of the "bad guy" characters, to keep the authenticity of the story. The film will be a PG-13 rating. Read more about our film, and watch the trailers, and watch for our film to come. Pard.

We want to help spread awareness about Histiocytosis Association.
We are very excited about the film Ride the Wanted Trail being produced by Groat Family Productions and how it is going to help the Histiocytosis Association. The Histiocytosis Association is the only nonprofit organization dedicated to providing support and education to patients and families dealing with histiocytic disorders. It also provides funding for numerous research grants in hopes of finding better treatment options and a cure for this rare blood disease. Ride the Wanted Trail will feature one of our histio warriors in an on-screen role. Andrew Harris is a brave young boy who has a form of this rare blood disease, and we are looking forward to watching him do a fantastic job in his role. The producers of the film have several goals: to raise awareness in the fight against histiocytosis through the promotions and events of the film, and to help spread the word about histiocytic disorders and the Histiocytosis Association. Sincerely Meg Gardiner Special Events Manager. For more information visit:www.histio.org To visit Andrew's Website Playforacure . If you would like to donate to the Histiocytosis Association, please support by going to: www.histio.org. |
