Celebrity guests are invited to enjoy a glass of wine with The Wine Ladies.
Singer, composer ( What a Wonderful View, This Way of Hearts, Stuck with You, That Line between the Earth and Sky, Desdermona) producer, Kelly Slattery dropped in to give us the low down on her new film “Down For Life” that premiered Sat night September 12th,2009 at TIFF. The film is about a day in the life of the gang members of South Central LA. The film cast actual gang members and explored the sheer impossibility of getting out of these gangs. Absolutely riveting, this “Toronto” born girl now living in LA making music, producing films, enjoyed a beautiful glass of Jackson-Triggs Sauvignon Blanc with The Wine Ladies.
