Their award-winning film, the independent teen drama “Still Green,” has been released nationally on DVD by distributor Osiris Entertainment!
After a successful festival run, including winning awards for Best Narrative Feature at the 2007 New England Film and Video Festival as well as Best Ensemble at the 2007 Fort Lauderdale International
Film Festival, Still Green ran in select theaters in May of 2009. Produced by Uncovered Productions and Artigo/Ajemian Films, the Still Green DVD will be available for purchase or rental at numerous outlets including Hollywood Video, Movie Gallery, Blockbuster Entertainment, Netflix, Amazon, Best Buy.com, DeepDiscount.com, Critics Choice, and Planet Video.
Still Green follows a group of recent high school grads on their final vacation before separating for college, where a tragedy occurs and tests the bonds of their friendships. The movie stars Hollywood up and comers Sarah Jones (HBO’s Big Love, The Riches), Ryan Kelley (Mean Creek, Prayers for Bobby), and Noah Segan (Brick, What We Do is Secret).
Written by Worcester native Georgia Menides and directed by Jon Artigo, who teaches filmmaking at The Los Angeles School of the Arts, Still Green was produced by Worcester based Andrea Ajemian, Clark University alum Doug Lloyd, and Ms. Menides. The soundtrack features Worcester’s own The Jediah Band.
The after-party for the local premiere of Still Green, in May of this year, raised over $1400 for gardens to be planted in front of the Worcester Youth Center. In addition, producers collaborated with teen organizations GOYA (Greek Orthodox Youth Activism), Naples YMCA’s Project Graduation, and Project Disney, among others, during their limited theatrical run because, as Producer Andrea Ajemian explains, “In our film we deal with serious teen issues, and we wanted to help give back to organizations that provide support for teenagers.”
