Faye's Redemption

Drama

Feature

Arizona, United States

Faye has lived a life of loss. Unable to run from her sorrow, she drowns her memories in booze. When she wakes up in a hospice, she is confronted by two mysterious figures, who claim to be her guides to the afterlife. A decision about her fate has to be made and they are there to help her do so.

The Story

About The Project

My first film was a raunchy, off color comedy. The kind of film that makes people laugh in that uncomfortable way a person does when they are seeing something they just can't believe. I feel it accomplished everything that I intended for it to comedically, but it had a very narrow scope of audience and was something made purely for entertainment. For my second feature I wanted to create something that spoke to a much broader audience. Something that wouldn't just entertain people, but could potentially go a step further and get them to consider the consequences of how we treat each other on a daily basis. I believe "Faye's Redemption" is the type of story that has the potential to do just that.
