Mr. President

Movie poster I did for the Elevate Film Festival.

Heres a little synopsis:

Presidential candidate Sen. Danial Weaver, his family,and two aides are riding in a limo on their way to a televised debate with the sitting president(George Bush.) Sen. Weaver is stressed out by the demands of campaigning and one gets the sense he's lost his way amid the turmoil of running for office. Meanwhile, his daughter is reading a book --The Little Soul. When she gets to the part of the story that deals with forgiveness, she stumbles across a word. Fast-forward to the debate itself, with Sen. Weaver and Pres. Bush on stage at their respective podiums. Bush is answering a question from the moderator, using his usual cliches, when suddenly he stumbles on a word... the same word that Weaver's daughter stumbled on when reading "The Little Soul." On hearing Bush stumble over the pronunciation of the very same word that troubled his daughter, Sen. Weaver drifts off into thought, recalling the moral of the story "The Little Soul." What slowly dawns on him is the deep meaning in the story, that "...God only sends us angels."And if that's true, then even President Bush must be on earth for a good purpose-- even if it's to rally others for a better cause.
