Jackson Attending Napa Valley Film Festival for 'The Magic Bracelet' + New Still



The Magic Bracelet Screening 1 
November 16 @ 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM

For the third year in a row, the Napa Valley Film Festival is proud to support the Make A Film Foundation. This year it is with a presentation of The Magic Bracelet. This project was created to fulfill the wish of 15-year old Rina Goldberg whose final words to her mom before she died of Mitochondrial disease were ‘Promise to take care of my film.’

The Magic Bracelet mystically links best friends Angela and Ashley and a cheese-obsessed dog. When Ashley inherits a totem bracelet from a friend who died of Mitochondrial Disease—the same illness she herself battles—the bracelet leads the girls on a mystical journey of discovery in which a new level of friendship, family, and healing is revealed.

Academy Award winning writer- Diablo Cody (Juno), adapted Rina’s story into a short film script directed by Jon Poll (Charlie Bartlett). The film stars: Bailee Madison (Parental Guidance), Hailee Steinfeld (Academy Award nominee True Grit), Jackson Rathbone (Twilight Film Franchise), JK Simmons (Juno/Spiderman) and James Van Der Beek (Dawson’s Creek).
 
 
Next stop Napa Valley. Thank you Big Apple Film Festival for the honor. Was awesome. Not going to CA with Lucy and Ricky, but Jackson Rathbone, Director, Jon Poll, Producers Tamika Lamison and Carol Shine,casting Director Adele Jones and Rina's Parents. Lots of vino flowing thru Napa Valley, but will also be tons of Rina love, positive energy and Mito awareness flowing thru this Film Festival.
