A lovely garden party is
shattered by terrorists. Terrorists with a twist; for the
guests must run.
As the guests are forced to test
their physical boundaries, they begin to discover just what it is
each are running from. Some guests are able to confront their
inner demons, while those who continue to run, albeit
metaphorically, find an unpleasant fate. A
psychological drama, Run satirizes complacent society life,
questioning our values and integrity.
*Run has been adapted into a screenplay.
A PSYCOLOGICAL DRAMA
You're running for your life.
There's nowhere to run to, but plenty to run from. What would
you sacrifice to survive? Your child? Your love? Your last
shred of dignity? What can save you from yourself?
Run...and find out.
