Larger than Life

One woman.
One chance.
One moment.

In every persons life
there comes a moment...

A moment
when we must
face our fears.

A moment
              after which
                            NOTHING
                                           will EVER
                                                          be the same.

Courage.       Determination.       Perseverance.

Does she have what it takes?
Does she have endurance enough
to take on this challenge?
Will she succeed tho
her path is fraught with danger?

She hesitates in front of her future
- will she reach for it?  
All of her past has led her to
THIS moment.

She breathes in.
She breathes out.

She squares her shoulders, stands tall & proud, holds her head HIGH. 
One hand firmly on the door knob,
too late to back out now. 
The die is cast. 
Her other hand tightens
around the handle 
she wields 
like a spear.

She is ready...

to open the door

to a teenage boys' bedroom.

One woman.
One chance.
One mop.

She turns the knob...




Coming soon to a theater near you!
