    A Strong First Feature

    A strong first feature from a genre-busting new talent. Writer-director-producer Mel House presents a compelling look at artistic obsession and the nature of 'reality'. Supported by a decent cast, led by suprisingly compelling standout Nickie Morgan, Mr. House confidently uses his camera to tell the story of a woman who's life is unravelling and her director-boyfriend who may be using it to fuel his own creative vision.

    Made on a less-than-shoestring budget, FTB makes you wonder what this gang could do with a million dollars and a distribution deal. I, for one, can't wait to find out.
