Film from Barren County Screened at Toronto International Film Festival
What happened
Three feature films were shot in and around Glasgow this summer, bringing money into Barren County's economy through local hires, lodging, and purchases from local businesses. The Southern Kentucky Film Commission helped bring these productions to the area. One of the films, titled “I Wish I Never Had Sex With Him,” was screened at the Toronto International Film Festival.
