FallBack Plan Productions was formed in the fall of 2009 by Morgan Peter Brown and Justin Gordon, graduates of the Professional Theatre Training Program at the University of Illinois. Their goal is simple and direct: to create thought-provoking and engaging films which champion up-and-coming writers, directors, and actors. By creating opportunity for the many talented friends and colleagues they have met and worked with over the past several years, Brown and Gordon hope that FallBack Plan will set a new benchmark for independent cinema.
