SACRIFICIAL PRODIGY
INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS meets ENTER THE VOID
A bipolar synaesthetic glam rocker goes off grid and off meds to write an album and mourn the loss of his brother, but the pressure of the music industry to capitalize on his grief threatens to destroy him.
"Sacrificial Prodigy was a visceral and enlightening experience. The emotion in the screenplay was raw and overwhelming, the characters were deep and nuanced, and the dialogue was often vulnerable and somber in a way that makes you want to feel hopeful instead of bleak." -WeScreenplay coverage notes
