Marion Scrape: Not Without a Hitch (2016)

Marion is a city plagued by the manufacture and distribution of designer drugs. From cooking to wholesale, through retail and use, the market has swept up the city into a year of violence and addiction. One is the story of Nick, a twenty-something art school drop-out who, after overdosing, attempts to break into April's house while she is home alone with her children. She calls 911 and Wanda answers but leaves April with the decision and one piece of advice, "you do whatever it takes to save your family." This short film takes place a year and a half before these climactic events when Gary and April decide to marry.
