Project Detail

A Farce About A Musical Court Case

Synopsis

What if the actors sack the production team and make the film themselves? What could possibly go wrong?

When student film maker Peter arrives at his first Acting on Impulse workshop to document this year's project for a Univerity assignment, he finds a full-scale revolution on his hands. The actors want to run their own show but can't agree on the genre. With more ideas than skill, rehearsals soon slide into chaos and the shoot itself looks ominously unlikely to happen. Can they find a way to see past their differences and put aside any insecurities to ensure Acting on Impulse has a film to screen?
