Kathleen Regan stars as TeTe Nerz, whose marriage is threatened when a young woman appears claiming to be her daughter.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cGodless Children\u201d Drops May 3 on VOD\/DVD<\/div>\n

Godless Children<\/em> is the feature film debut of co-writers Simon Barracchini, director, and Kathleen Regan (American Rust, A Man Called Otto<\/em>), who stars in the film, releasing on Amazon<\/a> and other major VOD platforms May 3. Robust online presales of the DVD<\/a> bode well for audience response to what at first appears to be a drama about infertility and loss, but evolves into a shocking journey into prejudice at the hands of religious radicals. <\/p>\n

Teresa “TeTe” Nerz (Regan) is reluctant to tell her wife Heather, played by Stacey Roslek (Being Frank, The Way that I Am<\/em>), that a young woman named Meghan (Jess Uhler, Wolf Hollow<\/em>), has shown up with DNA proof that she is TeTe’s daughter. TeTe was told years ago that she was infertile and believes that this hoax or misunderstanding—she’s not sure which—will open up old wounds that she and Heather still carry from being unable to have children. TeTe can’t resist digging deeper into Meghan’s story when she notices they share a prominent birthmark, but she hides her research from Heather. This secrecy drives a wedge between the couple, making TeTe even more desperate to end the mystery.<\/p>\n

When Meghan’s boyfriend kicks her out of their apartment, Meghan is taken in by an elderly woman named Ms. Hummel (Hazel Carr Leroy), who appears to be no more than a good Samaritan until she starts trying to control Meghan’s thoughts and behavior.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, TeTe discovers connections between herself and Meghan, a certain maternity clinic she visited 20 years ago, and a mysterious charity called “Godless Children.” Her search for truth leads to a dark climax and the film’s unexpected and shocking conclusion.<\/p>\n

Filmed entirely in and around Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, by local production company Rumination Images, Godless Children<\/em> is distributed by Los Angeles-based Leomark Studios. Available on both VOD<\/a> and DVD<\/a> through Amazon.<\/p>\n
