W4 Films NEW FAMILY DRAMA HEART OF HOPE RELEASED today across US and CANADA

Breathing new life, and light, into the family genre...

It’s not every day that a family movie packs such a powerful punch. With a touching plot, a stella cast and crucial message for both parents and children, Heart of Hope provides entertainment the whole family.

Following the story of an 8-year-old girl with big dreams, and an equally big heart condition, viewers of all ages are invited on the journey of facing their own darkest fears, only to realise, as Iris herself does, that love and hope can bring back the light.

“Filming under immense time pressure in the midst of a pandemic was challenging to say the least,” reflects the Director and Producer, Roydon Turner. “Yet again and again, the cast and entire crew brought everything they had, plus a little extra, to the set. I couldn’t be prouder of the end result.”

The result is a magnificent blend of classic storytelling, mixed in with a touch of breath-taking dance choreography and fantasy too, as Iris’ grandmother (played by Linda-Jean Barry) invites her into a fantasy world of personified colours, fighting their own battles against dark shadows that threaten to extinguish their life and light.

 Beneath all of these imaginative arcs, the spotlight falls front and centre on one important and pressing current issue: organ donation.

Faced with the ever-more-urgent need for a new heart, and the implications of what this means for both her and any potential donor, Iris (along with viewers watching the movie) are able to process the enormity of the subject slowly, over the course of the film. Indeed, helping families to have the all-important conversations surrounding organ transplantation and donation is a central aspect of the film’s entire purpose.

“Despite the critical shortage of organ donors, around 40% of people still say no to organ donation because they don’t know their loved ones’ choices - they’ve never had the conversation,” says Roydon. “We need to get people (young and old) talking about organ donation, and that’s what this film seeks to do.”

Not only the film’s Director, Roydon is also the founder of the Orgamites, an international CIC dedicated to helping more kids to not only understand and appreciate the marvels of organ transplants and donations, but to empower families to talk about their own choices in this regard too.

HEART OF HOPE, stars Connie-Kiss Mee, Sean Knopp, Linda Jean Barry and Sarah Leigh is released today in the US and Canada on VOD, cable and DVD.

Directed by Roydon Turner, Written by Arabella Burfitt-Dons, Produced by Arabella Burfitt-Dons
