June 14, 2011 - PRLog -- Pasadena, CA -- "Kiss," a short film about a naive young man and a beautiful prostitute, will screen at the seventh annual Action on Film Festival July 22-30, 2011. Throughout the nine day celebration in old-town Pasadena, AOF will screen more than 600 short and feature films while also hosting a number of dinner parties, celebrity events, and the renowned Action on Film awards show.

"Kiss" is the story of a naive young man who hires a lively prostitute to learn how to kiss. As their love for one another grows, the reality of their different lives threatens to come between them.

"I wanted to do something that would challenge me in an every aspect of filmmaking," says Justin Zagri, writer and director. "I chose a controversial subject with a story that is difficult to tell in a genre I never thought I would be involved in."

Zagri's interest in filmmaking began around ten years ago when he was a sophomore in high school. Teaching himself how to use the equipment in the school's news and video department, Zagri realized his potential in video editing. With a subsequent education from Columbia College Hollywood, Zagri has, over the years, developed the skills and resources necessary to truly bring a story to life.

Festival creator and director Del Weston says, "I love this film. The thought of new love mixed with jaded obsession and turned on its head by Justin makes for a beautiful film that questions everything we know about our first kiss."

Justin Zagri's "Kiss" will screen at the seventh annual Action on Film Festival. Featuring screenings, dinners, red carpet events, and the AOF awards show, the festival and celebration will attract thousands of talented filmmakers, celebrities, and fans alike.
