Summaries

Fifteen writers were given the surreal task of completing a screenplay unaware of what their fellow authors were scribbling. Once scripted and directed, the scenes were compiled on a DVD and programmed to play in random order so you never know how auto mechanic Del Berham's life will unfold.—Rural Route Film Festival

Follows Del Berham, a fairly average mechanic who is fascinated with children's books, through his everyday life in a small Iowan town. Separately written scenes play in random order, so Del's perceived character can change with every viewing. Consisting of 26 scenes on one DVD, the movie delivers 4.03 x 10^26 possible orders resulting in a non-linear film with a variable narrative logic.—Brady St. Eldrige DeWitt
