MY NAME IS PERCY PRIOR- a feature length indie

Percy Prior is not your average woman. She creates her daily existence whereby everyday she takes on a new identity to experience what it's like to live in someone else's shoes. One day she's an AIDS patient, the next she's a French gallery owner, the next, she's a crack addict begging for change. Her imagination is limitless, but her ability to connect and have meaningful relationships is non-existent. Things change when she meets Kitara, a social worker at an AIDS clinic who decides to try to help Percy when she in actuality becomes evicted from her apartment. But as the lies continue to build, Percy realizes that unless she comes clean to Kitara and herself, she'll be left alone, destitute, and perhaps a bit crazy.

Anna’s Island is a modern day story about Anna, a fifteen-year old Catholic school girl who is secretly writing her first novel. The film combines magical realism as Anna transforms her mother and her friends into exuberant and powerful characters in her book: a real-life waitress becomes an owner of a top French restaurant in New York; a materialistic travel agent transforms into a famous and notorious author; and her real-life mother and building super transforms into the most powerful female matador in the world. Interweaving the fictional with the real, Anna's Island is an adventure as well as an emotional powerhouse as we become more involved with Anna’s own coming of age. The narrator, an English nun who becomes enthralled with Anna’s writing, is the comic relief in a tightly spun story that shows even the young can inspire the old and teach them to remember who they once and always were.

Tide Pool Pilots is the story about four over-achieving thirty-somethings who live life to the fullest whilst working their mundane and unfulfilling jobs to support their weekend warrior habits. They party at the best clubs in L.A., they bomb at stand-up for fun, they enter tango contests and win. Frankly, Harold and Danni and Frank and Joann are the coolest couples you know.

When they decide they need an unbiased judge to help them pick their un-funniest comedian, Clover appears: a beautiful twenty-three year old who is rich from Daddy’s money but damaged from Daddy’s lack of love. Clover throws a wrench in the two couple’s dynamics—all of a sudden the cool feel old and start to realize their own personal failures. Danni: once the promising multiple graduate degree scholar, now suffers from job burnout at a tampon manufacturing company, Harold, a disgruntled car salesman longs to be a rock star, Joann, the star civil engineer faces the truth that her Senator father is the only reason for her success, and Frank, the reluctant artist falls back into his cocaine addiction after tasting success and fame. A tragic event makes their world turn upside down and each is left to face their own personal fears and failures.

A group of high school students meet on Facebook and plan a covert protest in Iraq under the guise that they are going on a summer exchange to Turkey. Led by Perry, a shy outcast from Orange County, the protesters include students from across the nation: Raheem, an Iraqi-American from Detroit who is the travel liason; Skye, a vegan environmentalist from Seattle; Jessup, a southern Baptist from New Orleans who survived Katrina and is enlisted in the army; Angela, a Korean-American girl from Queens whose brother was killed in Iraq; Tarik, an African American Jewish lawyer hopeful from Utah; and Sue Edison, a Washington D.C. college student on his way into politics.

When the students’ parents find out of the protest, it is too late: the teenagers are already in Iraq and in grave danger. The parents blame Perry’s liberal political science teacher, Mr. Collinsworth, who although inspired Perry to take action, never even knew of the plan of protest. A story of upliftment and enlightenment, The Protest is an action-packed dramady that dispels the notion of apathy in America's youth.

With its fast paced style and take-no-prisoners attitude, American Seoul gives us a biting and humorous look into the lives of four young Asian American girls living in Los Angeles. The narrator, a fresh-off-the-boat punk rocker, leads us into the lives of a hip-hop gangster girl, a whitewashed reality show contestant, a rebellious piano prodigy, and a lost and hopeless ex-actress. The stories interweave and almost never intersect, and yet the thread of common issues of identity as an outsider in America give the story it’s poignant and universal theme.
