LOCAL INDEPENDENT FILM SELECTED FOR SCREENING AT FLORIDA FESTIVAL PITTSBURGH, PA – Dec. 19, 2005 – A locally produced movie, "Doing Therapy," has been selected for screening at the Delray Beach Film Festival, to be held in March 2006 in Delray Beach, Florida. Pittsburgh filmmaker, Joe Giacobello, wrote and directed the full-length romantic comedy to raise public awareness about panic and anxiety. He also acts in the movie, alongside actress Barbara Winters and a collection of other local actors. Giacobello says the audience reaction to the film has been outstanding. "We had a screening for cast and crew...and somehow, this crazy, low-budget movie had people laughing one minute and crying the next." Set in modern-day Pittsburgh, "Doing Therapy" tells the story of a high-class Hollywood actress who, in the midst of a successful film career, develops a sudden problem with panic attacks. She is sent to a top anxiety specialist—an offbeat psychologist based in Pittsburgh. To avoid media attention, the unlikely couple is stuck together in the shrink's sloppy bachelor pad for an entire month, for extensive 24-hour-a-day therapy. Enter a crazed stalker, a fear of bridges and a few other unexpected twists, and the result is a fun, thought-provoking film that Giacobello hopes will be a "hit" at festivals across the country.
