THE X-RATED GRANDMA is a feature film compilation of 7 shorts of a 60-something woman in a small Southern ghost town. Filmmaker Jack Truman returns back home, and over a 2 year period, filmed a series of 7 shorts of his real-life Mother, Opal, a former stripper. Some documentary, some mockumentary, the audience is left to decide…which is real? Which is not? Nothing is as it seems….
From the Filmmaker:
I am making THE X-RATED GRANDMA for one reason: to open people’s eyes. Most of the time people are nothing like you think they are. And people are afraid of truth. They are afraid to open their eyes, and see how things really are.
My Mother, Opal was a stripper for over 20 years. As a child, I grew up in a very different environment. And today, 40 years later, when people look at Opal, she is nothing like she seems.
I hope by sharing this film with others, people’s eyes will be opened to truths they are afraid to see. I hope this film shocks people, makes them think, talk and appreciate how different all of us really are. That’s what makes this world so great…that all of us are free to be different.
Open your eyes…..
-Jack Truman, Filmmaker

WHAT MAKES THIS PROJECT DIFFERENT
|
|
THE X-RATED GRANDMA is a 2-year compilation of short films of Filmmaker Jack Truman's real-life Mother, Opal Dockery, a former 20-plus year stripper from the 1970's and 1980's. Exposing the world to a slice of life unimaginable, THE X-RATED GRANDMA is designed to shock people, and open their eyes. This is a film no one else would be able to make. Nothing is as it seems....

HELP US MAKE PARK CITY
Opal and I are going to be a part of the Park City madness this month with THE X-RATED GRANDMA….
And we need your help.
THE X-RATED GRANDMA is going to be part of a major online event with this month’s 2009 Slamdance Film Festival. The festival is in Park City Jan. 15th-23rd. We want to make the trip, to promote the event, make major announcements in Park City, and explode our upcoming film to the world. But for us to make the trip, we need to raise some money. And we cannot do this alone.
Indiegogo, a filmmaking fundraising community, has partnered with us to help us raise money to make the trip next week. We have 10 days to raise $3500. If we reach this goal, we can make the trip to Park City.
Can you help us?
Here’s the website if you would like to help with a contribution for THE X-RATED GRANDMA:
http://www.indiegogo.com/xratedgrandma
Check it out. There’s a lot of details about the film, what the funds are needed for, and also, how you can become a film partner with THE X-RATED GRANDMA by making a contribution.
Any amount helps. If you can, help us make Park City with THE X-RATED GRANDMA!
Thank you,
Jack |
