Computer Files, Websites
David Frank is suing God. When we meet David, this formerly successful attorney -- shattered by his wife's death -- spends days in his bathrobe with his only real companion, his beloved bulldog, Brutus.. While visiting his beloved niece Lucy near Orlando, a tornado threatens to destroy David's house. He races home in a heroic effort to save poor Brutus, but is stopped by the police and watches helplessly as the dark funnel of destruction sucks up the house, and the dog, like a Wizard of Oz nightmare. Then, adding insult to injury, the Insurance Company tells him they won't pay because the damage falls under the 'Act of God' clause in his policy. David is livid. But then he gets the bright idea to sue God Himself for damages, naming representatives of all different faiths as co-defendants.. Fueled by a megalomaniacal and opportunistic judge, a beautiful but damaged defense attorney, and David Frank's own sharply-honed legal gymnastics, what starts out as a crazy, radical stunt ultimately becomes a very deep and soulful journey.. Winner of the Audience Award for Best First Narrative Feature at the Maui Film Festival. Winner of Best of Fest at the Real to Reel Film and Video Festival.
