Synopsis/Details
Jim’s Not Dead is the story of the stories of women: women getting older, women caring for aging parents, women with cheating husbands, women navigating online and traditional dating, women scientists, women who have lost best friends, women trying to make it in a man’s world, women bonded over decades and united at a high-school reunion. This heartfelt film is smart, funny, and grounded in real life, and will have you laughing, and maybe crying, right along with these extraordinary women.

The Writer: Carolee Caffrey

I’m actually a biologist, with lots of years of experience teaching college-level bio classes. I know a lot about crows and crow behavior – the subject of my dissertation, and thereafter, research – and, unfortunately (it stresses me out!), our current climate and biodiversity crises. I live in San Diego with two cats, and am still going on awful online dates (sensu Mars, in the autobiographical Jim’s Not Dead)! JND is my first venture into screenwriting. It is, in a small way, a tribute to my best friend of years ago, Bryan Obst (the character Adam); an extraordinary human. I’m pretty happy that Jim’s Not Dead is getting read and making people laugh!
