About Stuck for a Reason

Lydia thought she knew it all. Who she was, what she wanted, and was on the fast track to get all of it. Until one day, on her way to make a huge presentation, she gets stuck in an elevator with Jerome: a rapping, obnoxious, thug. As Lydia begins to fear for both her safety and her career, Jerome changes her beliefs and grasp of reality itself.

The film was produced by Hillary Hawkins. Hawkins, formerly of Nickelodeon and Nick Jr, is an award nominated voice actor and film/tv actor, who has delved into producing. Her strong values lead to films that have a message.

The film stars Hillary Hawkins (Nickelodeon, Nick Jr) and Adrian Arthur (Vengeance Fury)

“[Stuck for a Reason] explores how we judge people by how they look, not what is on the inside, missing their magic,” said Gene Lopez.

The film premiered in September at the Northeast Film Festival and wowed the audience.
