Director Statement

The Flight of the Gypsy Nightingale is my first feature length venture in digital cinema. I met Christina at an event sponsored by the Los Angeles Swiss Consulate. My wife, Dora Krannig who heads the Dance Program at Glendale Community College, was presenting several Dance pieces featuring GCC students for the event. As it turned out, Christina had been a student of Dora's at USC. So during the immediate reunion Christina gave us a 'catch up' biographical history of her life post USC. I found the story of her adventures in Entertainment Land to be intriguing, diverse, and funny. With the emphasis on FUN. So I invite you to join on this journey into and through the Life and Times of The Gypsy Nightingale, friends and family... from Bubble Bath Aria to the Body Painting Operatic Finale.
