(Los Angeles, CA) - The Boarder is directed by Jolene Adams, written by Executive Producer Jane E. Ryan and is inspired by true stories. This real life feature film explores the heart breaking affect that Reactive Attachment Disorder has on a young boy (Andy Scott Harris) and his adopted family. The trauma that contributes to RAD is often something that has happened in the first 33 months of life, including the first 9 months in utero. This can be anything that can be described as �disturbing,� such as psychological trauma; neglect or abuse; loss of the mother due to death, illness or intervention by social services. There are different degrees of attachment disorders, with reactive attachment disorder on the most severe end.

Andy Scott Harris� impressive resume includes the Blockbusters Angels and Demons alongside Tom Hanks and Ewan McGregor, Columbia Pictures Bad Teacher alongside Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel, high rating TV shows House alongside Golden Globe winner Hugh Laurie and New Girl alongside Zoey Deschanel. He has already received multiple accolades, including the prestigious Young Artist Award for Best Actor in a Short Film for his role in Alone and the Indie Fest Award of Merit for a Leading Actor also for his lead role as Steven in Alone. With so much praise it is certainly looking like Andy Scott Harris is going to be the next big thing in Hollywood.

The Boarder premieres at The Grand Theatre, Nebraska on June 10th.
