The Real Z

My Big Night

When Z arrives at the premiere, she’s surprised to see a red carpet, a camera crew, and some people being interviewed. Her whole family gets to walk down the red carpet before they’re escorted to a packed, private theater.

Before Z goes inside, she does a small interview with the Seattle Tribune. They ask Z what she hopes the audience will take away from her movie. Z responds that she wants them to remember how she tried to stay true to herself, how Z tried to show everything that makes Z’s Seattle, Zeattle.

Once inside, Z’s seats have their names on them, like true guests of honor. The movie features some drone footage of Z’s neighborhood, a walk with Popcorn, scootering to school with Mari, Camera Club with Lauren, dinner with Mom and Dad, and lastly, footage of Singing’ in the Rain with Mari’s band, with the music playing on top.

The audience bursts into thunderous applause! Everybody loved the film, and most importantly, Z had made a film she was proud of.
