Lynette Elliott

David Bardo, a lost and lonesome soul, racked with fatigue and depression, spends his time locked away in his garage, relentlessly working on a secret project he builds to an unrequited ode of love. As his fastidious approach culminates into a darker and more manic overture. His outside work is rapidly declining, as he pulls further away from reality.

A semi-autobiographical yarn about a man who travels to rural eastern Kentucky to deal with the death of his estranged father.

An unforgiving sun, a parched earth, and a failed economy have left a small Texas town desolate. For ten years Promise, Texas has known nothing but one curse after another. It's barren, broken, and dying, leaving a town full of despair. When a couple finds a boy walking along a dusty road, alone in the middle of nowhere, with nothing but a mat tucked under his arm, they pick him up in hopes of helping him. What they don't realize is that he has come to help them and the residents of Promise. No one knows who he is or where he came from. Some think he's an answer to prayer. Others think he's a runaway or a false prophet. And the only thing this boy will say about himself is that he's here to help. The town's sheriff, Brody, is determined to uncover the truth. But Brody has his own problems trying to hold a dying town together. Miracle after miracle takes place and the residents of Promise embrace the boy... Written by Mike Norris
