First off let me say this has to be one of the most touching films I have seen all year and is a TV movie that I know Wendy Williams would love…  Some of ATL’s A Listers came out to support Roger Bobb’s private screening the debut of the GMC film “Raising Izzie” Winner of the 2012 GMC’s Faith & Family screenplay competition during the American Black Film Festival. Written by David Conley, and Produced and directed by Atlanta’s own Roger Bobb CEO of Bobbcat Films.

“Raising Izzie”, is a heart touching film about two young girls who become orphaned, who’s lives have changed tremendously, until they meet a radiant couple Greg (played by Rockmond Dunbar ) & Tonya (Vanessa Williams- Soul Food series)  who makes a significant impact on their lives.

Victoria Staley a new actress introduced as the head strong teenager, and Kyla Kenedy as Izzie, (Who Definitely stole the show with her quick wit and faithful belief that GOD is real. This helped her to endure the trial and tribulations she and her sister faced.
