A Film about Conversion and Justice in the Old West
Fang was dead. Killed by the deadliest gang in the Old West, the Imperial Dragons. Now its up to Clyde to save the American people from destruction's path. Will he be able to rid this world of the dark dragons or will he also be swept away?
Behold the recipient of the 1st Place prize at the University of Dallas 2012 Tower Film Festival!
We had a ton of fun shooting (pun intended) and editing this. We spent hundreds of dollars (stupid?) on costumes and props and general overhead; totally worth it!
Themes include Conversion and the Just Life from our UD Core Curriculum; we had to include the phrase "That's debatable" and keep it under 7 minutes. The books used were The Confessions by St. Augustine and Plato's Complete Works.
The main character, Clyde Gibson, undergoes a conversion and seeks to understand what it means to have a just life. Hilarity and serious philosophical contentions ensue.
No humans were harmed in the making of this film. Hope you enjoy our project! We certainly had fun making it!
