Overflow Entertainment and MzK!m Product!on’s True Story of a Milwaukee Inner-City Matriarch Hits AMC Theaters Nationwide in the Feature Film ‘Grandma’s House'
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) March 22, 2016 -- Marcus South Shores Cinema (located at 7261 S. 13th St, Oak Creek, WI 53154) is set to host the movie premiere of ‘Grandma’s House’ on Sat., April 2, 2016. Milwaukee’s own multi-business and Harmony Social Services CEO, Kimberley Zulkowski is proud to share the true story of her beloved grandmother, Margie Ree Harris, on the big screen. Produced and directed by veteran filmmaker and Overflow Entertainment’s Paul D. Hannah (Marriage Chronicles, The Sin Seer, The Last Letter, My Favorite Five, and The Love Shack Gospel Musical), MzK!m Production’s Kimberley Zulkowski will be making her film debut surrounding a storyline that is intimately personal.
‘Grandma’s House’ gives moviegoers a private and emotional look into the life of Executive Producer/Writer/Co-Producer once she moved into her grandmother's home after years of being tossed around the foster care system. Immersed with passion, faith, family, and truth, the film illuminates the trials and tribulations she faced living with a grandparent who stood grounded as an inner-city matriarch and pillar of strength to selflessly serve her family and surrounding community.
What sets this biopic premiere apart from most red carpets, is the incorporation of Ms. Zulkowski’s Harmony Social Services foster children and forever awareness project of the heart. While ‘Grandma’s House’ no doubt pays homage to Margie, the evening is centered upon instilling hope for those children in the system who are often left hopeless and believe they will never find a way out. Zulkowski’s entry into the film industry is proof that anyone can rise above their upbringing and survive, to shine like a star.
“It is time to fill the hearts of abused and neglected children with hope. It is time to give them courage to overcome the abuse they have suffered. It is also time to recognize the true heroes in their lives, grandparents, foster parents, and those who have selflessly taken us into their homes and into their hearts. ‘Grandma's House’ is a representation of what a loving caretaker looks like,” said Ms. Zulkowski.
