THE OKANAGAN’S
e R A M T H G I N BEAUTIFUl By Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER
It started with a North Vancouver mother. Her 17-year-old son was experiencing what many teenage boys do—school, sex, social media—but vulnerability made him a target for manipulation and bullying. It was torment he couldn’t escape. His home, once a haven, was no longer safe when he sat down and gazed at an LCD monitor. Shelley Gillen worried, as mothers do, and her fears stirred up her imagination. Cathartically, she crafted a composite of reality and fiction called A Mother’s Nightmare. Months later, at the south end of Brown Road in West Kelowna, she watched as the climax of what her son went through was being recreated before her eyes. While a crew of professionals, amateurs, internationals and locals worked together to make Gillen’s painful story into a film—a multimillion dollar budget spilled into the local economy. And if the positive mood of the producers is any indication, more stories, more films and more money will likely be coming the Okanagan’s way. See story A3.
