Trailer of "The Story of Luke" is already on line





Dear friends, the trailer of Alonso Mayo’s first film is already on line.
                                                    
"The Story of Luke", is the story of a young man with autism who has lived a sheltered life, but now he is about to embark on a quest for a job and love.

This film is based on the director’s experiences in “Centro Ann Sullivan del Peru” (CASP) as it is described in his documentary short film "Just Like anyone" (Como cualquier otro). It is worth mentioning important that Alonso Mayo is Liliana Mayo’s son, who is the director and founder of CASP.

We thank you in advance for sharing this information with your friends.

@alonsomayo Update 9/23/2012:
"The Story of Luke"
Trailer & World Premier

Dear Friends & Colleagues,

This past year has been absolutely amazing for me because "The Story of Luke", a feature film project that is incredibly close to my heart, not only finished post-production and is less than a week away from having it's World Premier at the San Diego Film Festival (Saturday, September 29th @ 7:00pm), but because I couldn't be more proud of the outcome. I want everyone to see "The Story of Luke" to experience Lou Taylor Pucci's riveting lead performance, as well as Seth Green's, Cary Elwes' and Kristin Bauer's awesome supporting roles. And I want everyone to see "The Story of Luke" because we set out to make a fun, entertaining & heartfelt movie about a subject that probably doesn't strike most people as fun or entertaining, and we succeeded.

"Sheltered his whole life, Luke, a young man with autism, is about to embark on a quest for a girl and a job, and he won't be taking "no" for an answer."

This is just the start of our festival run and we are working hard to secure distribution but I would like to reach out to you and ask for your support for a handful of things you can do to help "The Story of Luke" right now:
