About this Event

Join us for a theatrical reading of the script for Augusta Mariano's USC thesis short film, I THINK MY R@P!$T IS A PRETTY NICE GUY, at the Whitefire Theatre.

There will be a live reading of the short film, followed by a Q&A with the writer-director herself and a reception. Cast lineup for the reading will be announced in the coming days.

Beverages and light bites will be served. Donation options will be presented at the event.

If you are not in town and would like to attend virtually, please email [email protected]

What is the film about?

I THINK MY R@P!$T IS A PRETTY NICE GUY is a thought-provoking, heartwrenching, and one-of-a-kind dark comedy short film about FRANKIE, an outgoing college student, who struggles to process and accept her experience of sexual assault.

What are you fundraising for?

Funds raised from the event will go towards locations, permits, costumes, food for the cast and crew during shoot dates, equipment (camera, lighting, etc.), and ad-hoc post-production needs, to name a few.

Why do you need to fundraise for a student film?

Excellent question!

While the University of Southern California does provide some creative and logistical support, all student films are predominantly funded by the students themselves. Making films is an art and a true love, but getting the technical andcraftsmanship support to make a filmmaker’s creative vision look, sound and feel as good as it can be is, unfortunately, an expensive proposition.
