(Black PR Wire) LOS ANGELES – August 14, 2017 – Break out filmmaker Jade Jenise Dixon returns with a new romantic comedy.

The film ‘Dog Park’ has been accepted in the Downtown LA Film Festival that runs September 21-30, 2017.

Dixon, who directed, wrote and produced the film will also hold a red-carpet screening of ‘Dog Park’ on Oct. 6, 2017 at the Arena Cinelounge on Sunset in Hollywood. The invitation only extravaganza will include in-person cast interviews and a Q and A with the director.

‘Dog Park’, starring newcomer Tennyson Shanahan and Dixon, delves into the challenges of a young and successful software engineer, who finds the love of his life in the dog park while pretending to be the owner of his ex-girlfriend’s dog. With a dynamic cast that includes cute canines, this heartwarming movie promises to capture hearts in the most hilarious way.

“I’m so proud to share with the world this universal love story that can be enjoyed by everyone,” said Dixon.
