About this project

LIGHTER is a dark comedy about Roman Clower, a fat comedian who's tired of being fat and funny. But sometimes you can't help who you are, or how you are...or even where you are...no matter how hard you try.

LIGHTER is about image versus identity, and what a man will do to try to change himself. It's funny... I promise.

This is our second feature film. We shot our first (SOLID COUNTRY GOLD) on location in South Carolina and it won several awards and found a large audience. We intend to continue filming in South Carolina, and we want to maintain the intimate style of filmmaking that made our first feature successful.

We can do a lot with a little money. This is a good story and we're putting together a talented cast.
