Comments
This is a Proof Of Concept trailer for a Web Series under the IPF/CMF short form series development program. We are shooting a 2 minute pitch trailer of the series, then if selected, will get the 2nd round of funding to produce the full first season.
Storyline
When a black, queer actress gets her big break by signing a binding contract with a TV network that she finds out is funded by racist homophobes, she’s forced to go to comedic extremes to convince her bosses to fire her in order to avoid breach of contract.
