Vita's Garden

The Pitch: In the forgotten corners of the crumbling city, little Vita clings to whatever bits of beauty she finds on the streets. Others fail to see the miracles all around until a mysterious box of chalk helps Vita bring a little hope to bloom.

The Backstory: Kris Keeley and I collaborated on the script for this short film for the Doorpost Film Project's 2008 short film competition. The film was a finalist in the competition that year.
