Watch the best scene reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWRdffz8UBM Newly widowed father, Daniel Lambert, grapples with his skepticism of the supernatural as he moves into a charming old house with his four children, seeking a fresh start after the untimely passing of his wife. The family struggles to adapt to their new life, each of them finding their own way to cope with their grief. However, his teenage daughter, Leila, longing for a connection to her late mother, turns to a séance, hoping to bridge the gap between the living and the dead. Unbeknownst to her, the séance inadvertently opens a portal to a sinister realm, inviting a malevolent spirit into their home. As inexplicable events begin to unfold, David’s disbelief in the paranormal is tested, forcing him to confront his deepest fears to protect his children and reclaim their home. http://www.instagram.com/echoesfromtheveilmovie Get to know the writer; What is your screenplay about? My screenplay, “Echoes from the Veil” is about a newly single father, Daniel Lambert, who moves his 4 children into a new house after his wife dies suddenly and tragically while at work. His second oldest daughter, Leila, wants to try to connect to her mom one more time but she ends up opening a portal and causing havoc on her entire family. The bigger problem is Daniel is basically the definition of a skeptic, so there’s a logical explanation for everything, so everything that goes on not only tests his beliefs but it tests his relationship with his children. What genres does your screenplay fall under? It’s a drama/horror film. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie? It’s not your usual “bump in the night” scary story. It has heart, it deals with not just the paranormal aspect, but it goes through everyone’s way of coping with a sudden loss. You want to see this family succeed at staying together, but at the same time you’re terrified at what’s actually trying to tear them apart.
