PRODUCER

A combat medic veteran with PTSD fights to save himself
and his family's wildfire-torn California vineyard.

SCARS is a dramatic film by Shaun Kosta, based on the book written by Richard Berg, CSC.

Shaun Kosta is an award winning writer, director and film-maker.

The producer, Suzanne DeLaurentiis, has been honored with many prestigious awards for filmmaking.

Based on intimate conversations with courageous men and women who have served in combat and others suffering with trauma, SCARS serves to open minds and hearts to what they endure, and the trials they and their loved ones undergo.

Clearly we are dealing with more than the wounds of painful memories and distress.

Wounds heal. Scars remain.

The Scars Project is actively soliciting donations and grants to fund the film production of SCARS.

Producer, director, writer, and philanthropist Suzanne DeLaurentiis first entered the industry as an opera singer and actress, studying at Carnegie Hall, and performing in various Broadway and off-Broadway productions as well as television and film.
