The Pack
NJ
GASP is proud to be a part of the feature film production of The
Pack, written and directed by Alyssa Rallo Bennett, and starring
Lucie Arnaz, Carlos Leon, and Ryan Homchick. Through
the power of cinema, The Pack uses drama and entertainment to raise
awareness about the use of tobacco and the exposure to secondhand smoke.
The award-winning film has held screenings at festivals, schools, and at various organizations, impacting both smokers and non-smokers alike. As Laura Green, Director of Special Events from the American Lung Association of Maryland said, "the film doesn't hit you over the head, but through the magic of cinema, gets you to think for yourself. The Pack takes an important issue and wraps it in a touching personal drama."
This movie is available for rental from Netflix or is available for purchase. Put "GASP" in the promotional/coupon box at check-out and 20% of the proceeds go to GASP!
