Gingger Shankar was recently chosen as one of the 25 New Faces of Independent Film, presented by Filmmaker Magazine. Shankar provided the original music for Homecoming, which will be shown at this year’s event on August 19th in Tacoma, Washington. Not only will she be attending the event, she will also be introducing and talking about the film’s showing at the Grand Cinema.
Shankar grew up in LA and India and is an accomplished composer, violinist, and singer. Besides Homecoming, Shankar’s other scores include The Passion of the Christ (2004), Charlie Wilson’s War (2007), and Circumstance (2011), which comes out nationally on August 26th.
Join Shankar at the Grand Cinema for a chance to see Homecoming and to meet one of independent film’s most talented composers.
