STORMCHASERUSA, 28 minutes
Director: Gretl ClaggettAll Bonnie Blue ever wanted was to chase tornadoes with her Dad. But dreams die with time. Now, she’s become a different kind of storm chaser — hawking storm-doors “door-to-door” for her charismatic boss, Flip Smyth, a cult-like father figure to Bonnie and his tribe of young salesmen. But when Bonnie realizes that Flip’s sales doctrine of “Flip the Switch!” is just a way to exploit customers, a different kind of switch flips inside Bonnie — unleashing an inner and outer storm of violence.
Expected to attend: Director Gretl Claggett and actor Stephen Plunkett
