Press Release Summary: Women on Top productions, an emergent Production Company, is
proud to present its first completed feature length film, Junction, at the La Femme
Film Festival on Oct 17th and the Filmstock International Film Festival on Nov 15th,
its European Premiere.

Press Release Body: The HD Feature, shot by Aaron Platt (Wild Tigers I Have Known,
Pull) was filmed largely in Apache Junction, AZ and follows a young girl's journey
to find the family she never knew she had regardless of the consequences. Starring
April Wade (Into the Arms of Strangers), Lira Kellerman (Pushing Twilight),
Stephanie McVay (Another Gay Movie) and Cindy Hogan (Rocketman), the film explores
the strange world of pilgrims and pyromania while highlighting genuine issues of
self and societal acceptance. Visually stunning and brilliantly, subtly acted,
Junction also features Rollence Patugan, Edward Gusts, Jason Shepard, Stephen Alan
Brown, Shannon Walsh and AJ Tannen (West Bank Story, JAG).
Highlighting music from Ryan Hanifl, Dana Falconberry, Arjuna, One Trick Pony and
Dusty Lane, the film was scored delicately and distinctively by Sonia Wisgo (Chasing
3000, Iron Road), giving Junction a modern and almost mystical, Native American
sensitivity. Coupled with spectacular images of Arizona's Superstition Mountain and
Goldfield Ghost Town, the story is a gripping journey brought to a crescendo when
two sisters collide in a dark desert wasteland, changing both of their lives
forever.
Women on Top Productions founder, April Wade, has since produced three additional
feature films under the company name. She is currently in the advanced stages of
post production on April Showers, which stars Tom Arnold, Illeana Douglas, Daryl
Sabara (Spy Kids), Kelly Blatz (Prom Night) and Janel Parrish (Bratz) in a gripping
drama based largely on the Columbine High School shooting, through the eyes of a
real-life survivor. Wade is also moving quickly on developing on an extraordinary
Rock-Film about runaway teens living on the street in Los Angeles, The Playground,
and has several other features in active development.
Women on Top Productions is proud to be a part of both of these progressive
festivals. The LA Femme Film Festival is a premier festival that focuses on women
filmmakers platforming their commercial films for the world wide audience. It is a

big names and a huge following in England.
Junction be screening Friday, October 17, 2008 at 8:00pm at Fine Arts Theatre (8556
