Here's the trailer for the indie comedy Weeding Out, starring KT Tatara, and produced, written, directed (and a dozen other credits) by Georgy Kao. (Warning: the language is not suitable for kids or work.) It's about a guy on house arrest who'se trying "to pluck out the bad influences from his old life and build a new one." Here's the synopsis:
A comedy about a guy on home incarceration who is trying to pluck out the bad influences from his old life and build a new one. From conception to final cut in less than four months, filmed primarily in one location and on a shoestring budget, 'Weeding out' follows Ryan, played by stand up star KT Tatara, who is released from prison early to serve his remaining time on house arrest. When his sister sells the family condo not knowing the full extent of his house arrest terms, Ryan is faced with the reality that he must make rent otherwise go back to prison. And the catch is that he's only got thirty minutes a day allowed outside. As Ryan struggles to make ends meet, he has to deal with a former "supplier" who wants him back in the game, his nosey parole officer, a crazy ex-girlfriend, his mama's boy landlord and a cast of others with their own series of "issues". Can he turn his life around in time or will his dreams go up in smoke?Like it says, the whole thing was conceived and put together in less than four months, with no budget. But looks like it has the makings of something funny... but they still need the cash to put the finishing touches on the film. So they're asking folks to help fund the project. Interested?
