Director’s Statement

Place of Bones is an intense western thriller that mixes dark, psychological elements with fearful mindsets and increasingly complex power struggles. Set in the Western Frontier of the 1800’s where there are no rules beyond the ones people create for themselves to survive, this script drew me in because it doesn’t seek to make heroes of its women, but to empathize with even their most unforgivable acts.The script is a gender-bender that kept me on the edge of my seat the entire read. It’s almost a glimpse into how brutal the frontier was for women trying to survive out there by themselves. Pandora is a tough, resourceful frontiers woman isolated from civilization and living in a desert wilderness with only her young daughter. There are no neighbors around, no one to befriend. This is an incredible visual opportunity to explore the legendary frontier of the 1800’s.

-Audrey Cummings, Director
