#47. Jeff Nichols’ Untitled Psychological Drama

Shotgun Stories was one of the best discoveries in American Independent film in 2007 and ironically, it had it’s world premiere not at Sundance, but a couple of weeks later in Berlin. Jeff Nichols isn’t likely going to be “overlooked” a second time out if he decides to submit his untitled psychological drama sophomore feature formerly going by the title of “Shelter“.

* Producers: Tyler Davidson and Sophia Lin
