All other roles listed will be unpaid but will have an IMDB credit and copy of the final film. ADR will be required as we enter post-production.
Synopsis: Jack Darcy is a down on his luck alcoholic news reporter. After losing his job and facing what looks to be a divorce and bankruptcy, Jack is desperate to get his life back to the way it was. After learning the news paper will be going under, Jack decides to return to a story he had long abandoned: a local young man named Jeremy Morrow who disappeared under mysterious circumstances in a small Texas town of Trinton County that many refer to as “Ghost Valley.” With assistance from the local Sheriff, Jack is met with strong resistance from the towns people who want him gone. Jack races against the minutes, hours and days desperately searching for anything that will lead him to the truth. Only to find secrets, betrayals and tragedy that unfold in his endless pursuit of his story. As well as secrets of his own begin to resurface.
