Director Statement
Hey there!
Thank you so much for taking the time to view “Doesn’t Fall Far,” starring Academy Award and 3x Golden Globe nominee Eric Roberts.
This project has been a labor of love and years in development. The screenplay was a semi-finalist at Oaxaca Film Festival and the ShoreScripts Short Screenplay Competition and a finalist at the Screenwriting Master competition.
The film follows a father and a son, who are both closeted homosexuals, each finding a different outlet for his desire. What happens when both secrets are exposed simultaneously on one fateful evening?
I’m so excited that you’re watching the film and that you are one of the first people EVER to see this project come to fruition. We would be absolutely honored to join you in sharing this film with the world.
Thank you once again for your time and energy. I hope you enjoyed the film, and I hope you can find a place for it (and our fantastic star actors) at your film festival.
Writer, Director, & Producer,
Joshua Michael Payne
