The Girl

Peter Roberts awakens from an intense but incomplete nightmare to begin a journey of revelation, of the kind of person he is, has been, and should become. For is Peter's dream predestination or foreshadowing? A condemnation for past indifference or an opportunity for atonement? When the time comes, does a new, better nature triumph over his life-long apathy? "The Girl" says there can be a hero inside us all. To make its point about choice and fate, I use some obtuse symbolism, including multi-faith imagery that is a little playful. But the goal is to inspire and to challenge, not sermonize. With influences as varied as "Wild Strawberries", "The Machinist", and my own dreams, I think you'll enjoy this thought-provoking piece. ____________________________________________________ Producers: Please contact me for the full script/synopsis, or buy the Kindle version at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MDLVKWN Note 1: Official Selection (The Red River Script Competition 2022) Note 2: As of June, 2018, this short and the 3 others I've written have been compiled into a feature anthology, "Stories for a Summer Beach Party".
