Five Minutes

VIOLET follows “Violet Morton,” a 32 year-old film executive who is living her life listening to this "Voice," resulting in fear-based decisions. She has made these decisions to avoid potential “worst-case scenarios” in her romantic life, her family life, and her professional life, and they have taken her away from who she really is. She has grown accustomed to this, to not being quite “herself,” and sees nothing amiss, until a friend’s comment makes her realize that The Voice has been lying to her. Her entire life.

14 vignettes, both comedic and dramatic, which look at women’s faces getting older, and why that makes people angry.

A restless, bored, and pregnant woman gives a defiant 12-year old boy a ride home and pushes him over an emotional line he did not know he was crossing that day.

A film development executive realizes that the “guiding voice” inside her head has been lying to her about everything.
