In PULLING A GAUGUIN, Caril Bridgewater abandons her husband
and family to pursue her dream of becoming a painter. With Paul
Gauguin as her model, she slips away, leaving no information about
her destination. When her husband Ben goes in pursuit of her, many
confl icts and complications ensue. Caril accomplishes her goal, but
pays a heavy price.
BIRDS OF A FEATHER is about a violent student revolt in an isolated
high school during a severe blizzard. This turbulent event cuts off
students and teachers from their normal lives and routines. Smoldering
confl icts then erupt between students and teachers which lead to the
student revolt.
CONDOMANIA, about snow birds on vacation in Florida, begins in a
comic mode. But that atmosphere slowly deteriorates when pettiness,
superfi ciality, and vicious infi ghting emerge. These events are mild
compared to sweet, 93-year-old Dolly Flynn's slide into vengeance
and retribution.
