We are pleased to spread some local good news and wish to help this project reach its goal.
Our very own San Francisco morning show personality at Alice@97.3, Hooman Khalili made a feature length film using his Nokia N8 and a custom lens.
Olive is the very first full length feature film shot entirely on a cell phone. A 35 mm lens adapter was fabricated to fit the smart phone in order to achieve a shallow depth of field.
The film is about an innocent little girl that changes the lives of three people without uttering one word.
The movie stars two time Academy Award nominated actress Gena Rowlands (The Notebook, A Woman Under the Influence). The sound design was done by Skywalker Sound.
The financing of Olive was done independently.
The goal now is to be the first film to not only be shot on a cell phone, but to also be the first independently financed feature film on 2,000+ theaters across the United States without the backing of a major studio.
Watch the trailer.
Ben Lear's song Imaginary Friends, from the film Olive, is on the Short List for the Academy Award for Best Original Song in a feature length film.
Spread the word and listen to the sweet magic of this song, as this movie needs your help.
