I’m very pleased to announce that our multicultural, international romantic comedy My Cornerstone (starring Miss India Australia beauty pageant-winner Zenia Starr pictured above) will complete its 2nd week of cinema screenings this evening. There have been over 150 cinema screenings Australia-wide in the first two weeks alone and the feedback we have received from audiences and film critics alike has been overwhelmingly positive. So thank you to all who attended screenings at cinemas in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide during its first week.

Due to public demand in Sydney’s Eastern suburbs we have booked the classy Ritz Cinema (Event Cinemas) at Randwick for daily screenings beginning late October (Friday 31st) until Sunday November 2nd. http://www.ritzcinema.com.au/Movie/My-Cornerstone

Meanwhile the film continues to show in selected Event Cinemas and Village Cinemas in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

Beyond Australia, it will then release in selected markets internationally starting with India-wide cinema screenings before the end of this year.

Thank you so much for all your support.

See you at the movies!

Zenia Starr

“Working on ‘My Cornerstone’ was a truly unique experience for me as an actress; for the first time I had the opportunity to act in a film with both of parents and so our ‘on set family’ truly was family!
The production team, cast and crew collectively put in many long and hard hours of work to get this film shot in record timing. Contrary to our on-screen interactions for the most part of the film, many lovely friendships were made and belly-laughing memories created. I hope that the message of this film will resonate well with those who watch it.”
Romin Khan

“If the words love, faith and hope resonate with you then ‘My Cornerstone’ is a film not be missed.
I have experienced a lot of love working on set with  ‘My Cornerstone’ team and we all had hopes regarding the faith of this movie to make it to the big screen and our dreams have come true indeed.
So please do come by and join us at the nearest event cinemas near you to celebrate this amazing journey of love, faith and hope called My Cornerstone.”

“I am a cast member of ‘My Cornerstone’ along with my identical twin brother Oren. Apart from being a cast member I also wore several hats within the crew department. I was the first assistant director as well as the production manager. Working on My Cornerstone was a great experience, as I got to work along some of the most incredible cast and crew I’ve ever worked with. I thank producer/director Stanley Joseph for the wonderful opportunity.”

“It was a pleasure to play the part of Heather Pinto in  ‘My Cornerstone’. Film was so well cast that on-screen family actually became a family after the shoot. Whole cast and crew were very professional. Everybody has worked long hours to finish not one but two films in record days, which is a big achievement. Stanley has worked very hard to produce and release the film. Hats off to him!”

And lastly, myself (James Morcan)

“Filming this ambitious international story was a mammoth undertaking and only achievable due to our highly efficient crew who pulled off untold miracles. Personally speaking, being an actor and screenwriter on the film was a tough dual assignment given the tight deadlines and the improvisational nature of the shoot. But fortunately with Stanley’s constant guidance and a very supportive cast and crew, I managed to deliver what was required.”

We are pleased to announce the theatrical release of My Cornerstone.

We shot this movie at locations in Mumbai, India and Sydney, Australia with an Indian/Australian cast and crew.

My Cornerstone is the first Indian-Aussie cross-cultural feature film in cinema history.

Event Cinemas are screening this film Australia-wide.

On Thursday 9th October 2014, My Cornerstone will be released in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane in participating Event Cinema venues. Please check Event Cinema websites nearest to you for session times in the coming weeks.

The following Thursday being 16th October 2014 will see the release in other key Australian cities including Perth and Adelaide.

Then later this year the film will be released in cinemas in various countries worldwide, followed by an eventual international DVD release.

My Cornerstone is a romantic comedy which explores multiculturalism and spiritual faith.

The film stars 24 year-old Indian-Australian actress Zenia Starr (Backyard Ashes) as an Indian nurse who moves to Sydney where she’s hired to care for the ailing matriarch of an uber-wealthy Indian-Aussie family. Starr is also a beauty queen and the current Miss India Australia.

The film’s director and producer, Indian-Australian filmmaker Stanley Joseph of World Pictures Australia is a veteran of Bollywood now living in Sydney. Our storyline reflects many of his own experiences as an Indian migrant in Australia. Stanley is a well-known musician and film composer turned director. MY CORNERSTONE is his second feature to date (with a third feature in post-production).
