Project of the Day: ‘Election Night’

Here’s your daily dose of an indie film in progress; at the end of the week, you’ll have the chance to vote for your favorite.

In the meantime: Is this a movie you’d want to see? Tell us in the comments.

“Election Night” 

Elevator Pitch: A politician’s family marches in the green room on election eve to wait
for the result – will the speech be a celebration or a concession? The
last 350 votes have yet to come in, and the nerves rattle the family
into a comic whirlwind of wild theories, long-held secrets, and a
revelation nobody saw coming.

Production Team:

About the Production: Without giving too much away… Wow. It’s really hard to talk about this
without giving too much away. I will say this, when I saw this as a play
in New York, there was an audible gasp. In a good way. And I knew I had
to make this as a film.

It’s funny, suspenseful and smart. But more than that, it has something
to say – about how our own family can still surprise us, and the
maddening tightrope walk of loving people with whom you completely
disagree. Themes that will always motivate me!
