Stoughton Local Jocelyn Padilla Creates Feature Film

IndieGogo campaign launched for production of the second half of feature film.

Stoughton native and 2004 SHS graduate Jocelyn Padilla is producing a feature film currently in fundraising mode.

The official 'I Am Monroe?' IndieGogo Campaign launched, complete with video, amazing rewards, and screenshots from the first half of filming last summer.

The campaign was created to gather funding so the second half of Padilla's film “I Am Monroe?” can be shot and completed in late August/September 2014. This surreal period piece features tragic starlet Norma Jeane portrayed by Andrea Kinch, along with the evils of 'The Womb Realm' such as Red Death played by Lindsey Elisabeth Cork, and 'Woman In The Womb' played by Jocelyn Padilla.

In short, the film follows a young Norma Jeane who awakens to find herself in a womb-like realm, a limbo between the past and future. The starlet realizes she's no longer in her own body, but is the “Woman In The Womb,” and learns that passage from one realm into the next can only be achieved by facing a series of challenges. Laine, a whimsical spirit guide, aids this new soul on her journey. However, things are quickly shaken when horrific images appear in a magic mirror; “Red Death,” an evil, mysterious succubus plays minds games and tries desperately to keep “Woman In The Womb” from progressing.

The film, still in the production phase, has its own IMDb movie page, Twitter account, and Official Facebook Fan Page. Padilla hopes to premiere the film in early to mid 2015.
