About this film
World Premiere. Neβer do well Alan returns to his small Florida hometown to find his sister Quinn all grown up. But when he discovers that their overbearing mother is sheltering Quinn because of her autism, he hatches a plan for them to run away together so that Quinn can pursue her dream of becoming a professional dancer. Set in a small church community somewhere in the middle of the state, director Vitro Trupiano weaves an original story befitting from this fresh location to explore the ideas of faith, suicide, and chasing your dreams minus the spoon-feeding. Hellbent On Boogie is a refreshing look at mental disabilities told with drama, humor and charm.
