WHAT DRIVES THIS FILM?

  Since I was 6 years of age I’ve always had to prove that I can achieve the same goals and aspirations as everyone else. A lot of people tell me even in my adult life that they are so impressed by how I’m able to do to the simplest of task, in a polite way. What they don’t realize subconsciously they are placing judgement upon me based off of what they perceive my physical limitations to be. My determination to surpass expectations comes from my will to achieve the unwritten objectives of creative intelligence. What this film means to me is the ability to put pictures to thought. The ability to share what’s inside my mind from the 1 st draft of the script to a well produced short film. Finally, and most importantly silent the strangers that nay say upon my being as a creative mind separate from the crowd. I am the surprised that people don’t think they need until they see my works.

WHAT IS THIS FILM ABOUT?

  A disabled man with a tormented past sifts through trash cans searching for something. Homeless... maybe. A loner, definitely. He has walked this figurative road before many times, his daily routine. He finds a plastic bag with an unknown item in it and puts it in his fruit snack box he carries with him everywhere. The man brings it too a park to wait. A mother and daughter sit a few spaces down. The mother distracted by her phone doesn't notice her daughter. Slipping away the girl runs over to the man and ask for one of his fruit snacks. As he shoes her away a mysterious sedan approaches. The driver calls out wondering if the man needs a ride. The man accepts, taking a seat with the newcomer. The journey begins as they hit the road. Little do they both know the other has ulterior motivates. They both have their own reasons for being in that vehicle and they don't intend on leaving their plans unaccomplished.

WHAT IS THIS MONEY GOING TOO? 

  We would like to hit as many film festivals as possible for this films genre. The submission fees alone for a well rounded festival run get expensive quick so we want to hit them first. We also would like to run several social media campaigns to ensure we have a great influence on the most popular platforms. After all that is said and done we have an amazing cast and crew that are working for no money at this point to ensure this story comes to light. We would like to make sure they are paid something for their effort if the budget allows.
