This film, titled "What She Wrote About Me", is a comedy drama in the same vein as Alexander Payne's recent Academy Award-winning "The Descendants", Paul Thomas Anderson's "Punch Drunk Love", and Mike Nichols' "The Graduate".

"What She Wrote About Me" is set between the time a teenager graduates high school and when they start going to university. It features an unemployed teenager trying to find solace from the traumatic events that culminated in the recent suicide of his best friend.

This film is an odd piece with high emotional tension and darkly humorous undertones. It is perfect for anyone who wants to test their acting abilities to the limit.

All minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Otis Oats

Otis used to enjoy life. But, now, in the aftermath of the unexpected suicide of his best friend Talia Yates, he has become a downtrodden and defeated shell of a person. He has no direction, no clear path ahead. And his obsession with death is growing. He won't commit suicide but he will attempt to get closer to Talia beyond the grave by doing anything else that pops into his slowly maddening mind. He is slowly becoming deranged.

Talia Yates

At first glance, Talia is happy-go-lucky. She smiles a lot, laughs vibrantly, and jokes a lot. But behind the veneer, she is deeply troubled. Talia is hiding something, holding something back. She delves into joking and smoking in order to escape from her problems. But they are slowly coming together and they will soon be too much for Talia to handle.

Moira Oats

In a world without villains, Moira would be the exception. She is self-righteous even when she knows she is wrong. Of course, like all the best antagonists in fiction, Moira has certain elements in her make-up that make her human. She tries to show affection to her family, although she isn't very good at it. She masquerades as a nice person and tentatively believes that she is one, but her awful actions and words far outweigh her good traits.
