Official poster for the Lime Street Entertainment and Starseed Studios Easterseals Disability Film Challenge entry "In the Family." This is our most ambitious Easterseals project to date with an all star disabled cast (The Avengers of EDFC cast), talented camera crew, and of course the best Dolby Stereo sound of any Easterseals project I have done.
Written produced and directed by Natalie D'Alacio Ccht
This is her 4th project for Lime Street but her first time directing for us, making her our 11th female director in the studios history.

Dan Harris did a marvelous DP for this using 4K camera and. Kevin Michael Stafford provides a song for us here as well. My childhood friend Haley Robinson was the ASL interpreter. We also ended up using two of Grace-Mary Burega music pieces. We even got some help from Shane Campbell of Fat Happy Baby as a Production Assistant.
Big thanks to Nic Novicki for running this festival, and especially Carl Hansen of Cultural Detritus for giving me permission for using his alumni for this project. This project feels like a Cultural Detritus project but without Carl.
This film will be released this Saturday on the Easterseals Disability Film Challenge YouTube page. Thanks to a marvelous cast and crew for helping this most ambitious Easterseals project come to life.
