…It’s easier to ask forgiveness than permission

Audrey (Tammy Blanchard – The Iceman Cometh and Tallulah) a single mother to daughter, Cheyenne (Onata Aprile – What Maisie Knew and Madam Secretary), is trapped in a constant struggle to make ends meet. When her grandfather passes away, she inherits the family’s farmhouse, for which the lucrative water rights are coveted by Calvin (Bruce Dern – Nebraska and The Hateful Eight) — a longtime business rival of Audrey’s grandfather. Calvin’s own grandson, Bobby (David Spade – Father of the Year and The Do-Over), is on a mission to prove that he can take on the family business, and decides to take matters into his own hands by hiring the mentally unstable Rainy (Guillermo Diaz – Scandal) and drug-addicted Jawari (Dwight Henry – The Birth of a Nation and 12 Years a Slave) to intimidate Audrey and Cheyenne into giving up the property. Once Bobby’s goons realize Audrey does not intend to go quietly, the situation quickly spirals out of control. Mother and daughter held hostage and fight for their lives! This high stake thriller, marking David Spade’s first dramatic role, we witness the strength of a mother oing everything within her power to protect her young daughter.

A second short, “Unconditional Love”, followed by a co-production of a feature film, the true faith-based “This Day Forward”, under her belt, Aimee concedes that a script must resonate with her to warrant consideration. She also admits to a love for the supernatural. Current projects include “The Harvest”, a sci-fi thriller, and “61 Ash”, a horror title inspired by true events. In a decidedly non-terrifying twist, Aimee also has a nonfiction novel in the works, as well as an animated children’s TV series with ties to her online baby clothing venture, “Bamboo Baby.”
