Ricardo Del Rey

Ricardo Del Rey is a gritty, mystical drama about faith, redemption, and the extraordinary power of an unlikely friendship.

Eleven-year-old Miguel Rodriguez is intelligent, fearless, and guided by an intuition so powerful that it sometimes feels as though an unseen force is whispering in his ear. In his imagination, and perhaps through something far more mysterious, Miguel becomes Ricardo Del Rey, a levitating hero who believes the impossible can be made real and that even the most broken among us can still be saved.

When Miguel promises to find a Santa Claus for his school’s Christmas pageant, he sets his sights on Ralston, a white-bearded recluse feared throughout the neighborhood and rumored to be a dangerous monster. Ignoring every warning, Miguel enters Ralston’s isolated world and refuses to abandon the man everyone else has given up on.

What begins as a reckless mission develops into a powerful bond between a misunderstood boy struggling to protect his family and a man who has lost nearly everything. As violence, buried secrets, and the consequences of the past close in around them, Miguel’s unshakable belief in goodness forces Ralston to confront the life he left behind.

Blending supernatural mystery with raw human emotion, Ricardo Del Rey is the story of two unlikely souls who discover that they may be the only ones capable of saving each other.

StarStruck (development)

The scientist and philosopher Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) was the first person to use a telescope to study the skies. He was able to gather evidence that convinced him that the Copernican Theory that the earth revolved around the sun was correct.

His adamant adherence to this angered the Catholic Church and in 1633 he suffered one of the greatest betrayals in history when his best friend and admirer, Cardinal Maffeo Barberini, then Pope Urban VIII, forced his trial by the Inquisition in Rome. Being found guilty of heresy, he was ordered to recant, his books were banned, and he was sentenced to spend the remainder of his life under house arrest.

“StarStruck” is a compelling and sometimes disturbing journey into the very depths of a man’s soul.

“Smiler” is a story of survival, of surviving the un-survivable.

Based on actual events, it’s about a boy, taken and put through the Nazi-devised hell of the Holocaust.

Over a five and a half year period starting at the age of 15, Dolphy Smiler grew into manhood in the midst of the greatest horror ever imposed on humanity; and through his skills as a chameleon, a tough street fighter, his love of family, great luck and a pledge made to his mother that he’d never give up, that he’d make it through and come back to her, he remarkably, unbelievably, managed to come out the other end of the horror in one piece… physically.

Finding his world destroyed, everyone he knew - friends, family, his mother - had all been exterminated, murdered horribly in the gas chambers at Auschwitz, he sets off on a mission of revenge.

Ultimately he comes face to face with his greatest challenge - surviving his own instincts of hate and himself.
