When I set out to write Hangry, I had one single goal in mind - make audiences smile. I knew I wanted to make a comedy, but the humor needed to have a level of authenticity, coming from characters that felt genuine and relatable.
When people see Hangry, I want them to leave the screening with a positive feeling. If at least one audience member says, "THAT was fun," then I've accomplished what I set out to do. And I believe that Hangry delivers. It's a humorous and heart felt story about one elderly man's attempt to get the lunch he feels he deserves, but more than that, Hangry is about coming to terms with your current state in life and not allowing circumstances to dictate your level of happiness or contentment. Anyone can be a force for positive change, regardless of age or station in life.
I hope Hangry makes you smile, laugh, and that you might see a little of yourself and your own family while watching.
