ALL THE WORLD WANTS HIS FIX.
The Empty Sea is an adaptation of the short story "The Fix" by acclaimed author Percival Everett, first published in New York Stories and Best American Short Stories 2000, and featured on NPR’s Selected Shorts and at the 2003 Sundance “Media that Matters" Conference. The screenplay adaptation by David Poulshock is Black List Recommended.
Genre: drama, magical reality.
“As an indie, this could be to heroism what DONNIE DARKO was to time travel. It has enormous potential to build a strong commercial turnout and could garner critical praise thanks to its unique touches of magical realism a la BIRDMAN.”
