MURFREESBORO—A new independent film titled “Wait…,” produced, written and directed by Dr. Bob Pondillo, associate professor of electronic media communication at Middle Tennessee State University, was accepted recently at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival.

Pondillo’s friend, David Lawrence, a resident of Los Angeles, is the sole actor in the story about a man who receives the news that his son has been killed while serving in the military. MTSU students also participated in the film production.

Both Pondillo and Lawrence will be guests on MTSU’s “On the Record” radio program produced by Gina Logue and MTSU’s Office of News and Public Affairs. The program will air Sunday, June 22, at 7 a.m. on WMOT-FM (89.5). Podcasts of the weekly program are available at www.mtsunews.com.
