THE VOTIVE PIT World Premiere (Substream Films/Son of Sham)

at the Southern Fried Flicks Film Festival, January 09, 2007

You're in a room with thirty–six eighth graders in a public school and somebody expects you to teach them. If you survive the next fifty minutes, you may make it through the day. THE VOTIVE PIT comes from the front lines of the conflict within the human heart that threatens to blow us up. Here is the American dream of public education turned nightmare. School has become a votive pit, a trench we have dug and into which we now pour the blood of our kids, so that the spirits of the dead can speak truths to us. Are we going to listen or not? Written by Shamrock McShane, Directed by Mike McShane
