Tapestry Entertainment has finally completed their long anticipated independent film, Women’s Playground. A screening is to be held at the International House of Philadelphia, 3701 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia Pennsylvania 19104 at 6:00 PM, next Sunday, with more screenings in more cities to follow. Tickets are 15 dollars and can be ordered through their Web site at: womensplayground.net
Trailers can be seen on YouTube, by simply searching “Women’s Playground.”
Although I have not yet seen the film, I have been reading about it on FaceBook, and have watched all the YouTube trailers and shorts – there are about 20 of them, and they themselves are well worth watching.
They’ve come up with a truly brilliant idea. This movie is not a documentary. It’s a full length dramatic production written from interviews and letters by actual female inmates at existing prisons. The end result is a film that both entertains and informs. But, don’t expect a TV show. This is a hard hitting – no holds barred look into the lives of women in America’s prison system. Drug addiction, prostitution, rape and violent abuse are its mainstay themes, and you will not leave the theater with a pleasant taste in your mouth.
