[December 03, 2021]
The premiere of the latest Candy Cain film “A Holiday Homecoming”
will take over the big screen at Lincoln College’s Johnston Center
for Performing Arts Mainstage on December 11, 2021 from 7:00 p.m. to
8:30 p.m.
The movie “A Holiday Homecoming” is a faith-based film about the
residents of Hope, New York. After a fire at the St. Jerome's Home
for Children, the residents come together to help the displaced
foster children right before Christmas. Several families find that
what they thought was a temporary situation is exactly what they
needed to make their home complete!
The film features actors such as Allison Mullaney, Robert Levey II,
Taryn Hacker, and Jon Hacker. The picture is written and directed by
Candy Cain with Executive Producer Amy Minter and Director of
Photography Nelson Smith.
A Holiday Homecoming was released on Pure Flix on November 15, but
Gemelli Films is going to host their theatrical premiere at Lincoln
College's Johnstons Center of Performing Arts Mainstage Theater in
Lincoln, IL in anticipation of creating a faith-based Central
Illinois Film Hub. The evening will be filled with pictures in front
of the step & repeat banner, meeting some of the cast and crew,
walking the red carpet and watching a terrific family film to get
you in the mood for Christmas.
Cain has also teamed up with the local businesses in Central
Illinois for this event. The Lincoln Art Institute will be hosting a
Pre-Party from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. and will be offering a
family-oriented atmosphere with hot chocolate and cookies. Enjoy
time talking with the stars of the movie before the show starts.
Idle Hour will host the premiere, “Adults-Only After Party.” This
will be a 21 and over event and tickets will be sold at the door
with a limited number available.
Candy Cain, president and founder of Gemelli Films, Inc. as well as
an established writer and director, has fallen in love with Central
Illinois. Her film “Baking Up Love” was produced this past spring in
Morton. Cain is currently working on a new TV series, “Wrath and
Rituals”, that is filmed in Lincoln, Morton, Peoria, and other parts
of Illinois. Cain wants to develop a Central Illinois Film Hub to
grow the economy and is currently looking for investors to make her
dream a reality.
