Hayseed Details
Following the discovery of a reverend's body on Easter Sunday, a retired detective turned insurance investigator, tasked with finding grounds for denying a policy payout, uncovers corruption and murder in a rural community.As in many the "whodunnit" genre exemplars, there is one primary setting; in our case, it's a rural church—an uninspiring and uncomfortable place where everyone betrays everyone else. The emotional tone veers from icy politeness to spitting rage and back again. But, it's the humor that lightens the film's mood and balances well against its darker tones.Our main character's investigation exposes the divisiveness, sharp teeth, false fronts, and one pure heart of a small farm community. Our film makes allusions to other mystery films like Knives Out, Fargo, A Simple Plan, and Murder on the Orient Express, along with the works of Agatha Christie. The film grapples with Midwestern values and the American dream.We have brought together an award-winning team of professional filmmakers to take this script to the silver screen.
