Director Statement

Inspired by films like Goonies, Stand By Me, and The Sandlot, we set out to tell a story of kids out on their own, in search of adventure. I developed the characters and story over a summer with my daughter, Rowan. We found local actors and shot over 9 days, with next to no budget. The story is a mix of comedy and gross-out horror.
