Director Statement

"Five Star Realtors" is an absurd satire of large property management companies, and how many of them have been accused of treating their tenants. I have seen property management companies do some really sketchy things, they get caught, and then get the lightest slap on the wrist imaginable after taking advantage of their tenants. I, along with the greatest all-volunteer cast and crew of all time, made "Five Star Realtors" with the intention to make fun of this ridiculous world we live in. Where massive companies can take advantage of people, and get off almost scot-free. It is not right, but it's the reality we live in, so why not make fun and laugh at it, at least for 12 minutes.
