Where to Land

$17.95

SCREENPLAY
A philosophical farce about a successful sixty-year-old director of romantic
comedies who decides to have his last will and testament made, causing his
highly dramatic girlfriend and all their friends and neighbors to assume he's dying.

Joe Fulton is a semi-retired director of romantic comedies. He decides he should
have his last will and testament drawn up. At the same time, eager to be outdoors
and work with his hands, he applies for a job as assistant grounds keeper at a nearby
cemetery. His highly dramatic girlfriend, his impressionable young niece, his neighbors
and friends all assume he is dying but is too brave and selfless to tell anyone about it.

During the course of a single day, Joe struggles to correct these misunderstandings
while trying to decide what the right aspirations are for a man his age. After a lifetime
of work and play, love and struggle, success and failure, where—and how—should he land?

Where to Land is accompanied here by the screenplays for the short feature, Meanwhile (2012),
and the three short fiction films, A/Muse, Apologies and Accomplice (2010).
