Seeking visionary producer for Award-Winning short script (10 pages) DARK NIGHT OF THE SOULS. I am looking to have it made as a calling card for development of a feature:
Logline: A village eccentric’s insistence that he can bring a lost ship with Christmas lights provokes the wrath of a village bent on forgetting.
Synopsis: The loss of a fishing boat just before Christmas leaves a seacoast village a dark place. An eccentric, whose joy and purpose in life was to have tea ready for the returning crew, refuses to give up hope. He finds a glittering fishing lure. A ship horn sounds – is it the lost ship or a hallucination? The story is his struggle against the rising anger of the villagers to light Christmas lights to guide “his boys” home.
