The theme of the OCTOBER 2015 FILM FESTIVAL was:
“DEATH”.

Every film showcased on the night was about a character who dies or is already dead. This festival evening was especially unique because every film screened received a substantial vote by the audience for “best film” of the evening. It was the closest vote we ever had as every single film was in the race.

Here’s the summary of each film:

– A PEACEFUL MAN: Someone is about to die but won’t leave without a fight.

– BELL TOWER ENIGMA: The mystery of an empty church. Where are they and who is still alive?

– THE BLOOD OF LOVE: A widow has a machine that brings her dead husband…

Watch the Audience FEEDBACK for BOUDOIR:

Here’s what the audience had to say about BOUDOIR (moderated by Matthew Toffolo):

“I liked this film. The theme. The sexy-ness. It was a solid short.”

“This layer of super-sexy that’s intimating and scary. It’s an interesting contrast.”

“A scary film. Creepy. And sexy too.”

“You won’t see another film quite like this one. Great!”

BOUDOIR, 9min, US, Horror/Mystery
Directed by Gina Lee Ronhovde

An agoraphobic photographer is psychologically tortured by a mysterious client during a routine boudoir photography session, escalating into a battle to stay alive.

Director Statement

“Cooper…the idea for this…really came from a dream?”

“Yes, Harry, it did.”

– Twin Peaks

The concept of BOUDOIR originally came from a terrifying, David Lynch-y-Twin Peaks-inpsired dream I had at age 13, where I stumbled upon a body wrapped in plastic.

In a panic, I called 911, and turned the body over, only to…

October 2015 Winning Short Screenplay

Watch TRUE COLORS, by Giuseppe LiMandri

CAST LIST:

NARRATOR – Allison Kampf
MICHAEL – Hugh Ritchie
PHIL – Sean Kaufmann
ROSE – Susan Wilson
NURSE – Meggie McKinnon

Get to know writer Giuseppe LiMandri:

1. What is your screenplay about?

I would say that my screenplay is above all about forgiveness. A soldier coming back from Iraq with PTSD has fallen on hard times. He comes home to his dying father and to a mother who has run out of patience and understanding. In a sense the young man in my story is a prodigal son who is saved by his father’s unquestioning love. He comes to ask forgiveness to his parents but first he has to forgive himself.

2. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?

The subject matter of my script is very current and extremely important. Many young men and…

Get to know writer Margaret Carlyle Price:

1. What is your screenplay about?

Somewhere between a paperboy’s first cup of chicory coffee and the memories of the Madam who inspired Belle Watling of Gone With the Wind, there lies a story of sex, secrets and spiritual redemption. Interweaving portals to the past with the magic tricks of a spirit called back to his lover’s deathbed, BELLE BREZING is a haunting love story about a loyal paperboy on a high-stakes mission: To guide his former lover to remember the secret that forged her rise to fame but closed her heart to love. The screenplay focuses on this turn of the…

LIFE IS BUT A DREAM
by Brian O’Flaherty

Asleep at the wheel,
I wake up in a dream.
Real, is what I believe.
Knowing light through dark,
the contrast, stark,
and myself, in-between.

Lost River
by CF Lane

Sara jumped in to the icy waters after her dog.
He had slipped into the raging river.
The world went black as she saw him scramble ashore.

My Breath Caught
by CR Smith

Your beauty overwhelmed me, drew me forwards, outstretched hand reaching for a connection, until a man whispered not to touch the painting.
