Union. Director: Confidential. The Rockwells is a dark comedy, that shows us that not every perfect family started out that way. The story follows characters in their daily lives individually, then the stories become one. A father who's finally had enough, a mother who feels she's not good enough, a son who wants to be different than his father, and a rebellious daughter who gets involved with the wrong crowd. Need versatile actors with comedic timing. Possible name actor involved. This film will be shot in Hd and on 35mm Film. Professionals and one take wonders only please.
