My Senior Year boasts an impressive cast of up and coming young actors from Minnesota and was filmed almost entirely in Woodbury and St. Paul, including many scenes at Woodbury High School. It’s about a senior student in high school who finds the courage to confront issues such as bullying, depression and suicide prevention. The film has not yet been rated, but contains scenes intended for those 13 years and older. Carlini has directed more than 30 short fiction films, documentaries, commercials and music videos. He has received eight nominations and won three student awards from the regional Emmys. His films have been shown at area film festivals including the 2012 Twin Cities Black Film Festival.
