Synopsis/Details
“Campfire” is written along the lines of films such as “Blow” and “Traffic”. The story is about an out of work family man named CALEB, who wants a better life for his wife and daughter and has dreams of getting out of a crime ridden town. However, a debilitating back injury caused by a horrific workplace accident has made it impossible to secure legitimate work. The only respite in sight is some dubious casual work through a contact of Caleb’s brother-in-law. Caleb meets the contact, DWIGHT, a silver tongued and menacing urban-cowboy. Soon, Caleb is helping to smuggle people and drugs across the U.S. and Mexican border. Caleb’s troubles worsen when Dwight’s devious intentions towards Caleb’s wife, put him on a path for revenge. Caleb’s subsequent actions force Caleb to promptly get his family out alive and evade the police and the wrath of the cartel.
I believe the gripping storyline, high stakes and universal themes in “Campfire” will appeal to a very wide audience. Please let me know if I can send you the script, and thanks for your time and consideration.
Best regards,
Michael Akobi.
