Hi Rick.
I would love to see a film where the Latina lead isn’t flipping tortillas or jumping a fence. I’m looking for a clever feature with suspense and smart ass humor. If you do not have such a project in the works, consider SPITFIRE.
Meet Tomi Reyes. She is a 28-year-old receptionist/documentary filmmaker living in San Francisco. When the bodies of her friends start turning up in their refrigerators, Tomi is convinced that her middle-aged, Dockers-wearing, Hootie & the Blowfish-loving boss is the killer.
Crazy, huh?
SPITFIRE is the perfect sexy thriller that just so happens to span cultures and genres.
Thank you for reading this far.
