Black Sunday

A horror/thriller feature based on true events, Black Sunday tells the harrowing story of a Depression-era family that gets trapped in their rural Oklahoma farm house by the worst dust storm in U.S. history, only to find their safe haven turned into a house of horrors when they take in two disturbed drifters seeking shelter from the storm.

The script recently won Heidi one of three 2016 Screencraft Screenwriting Fellowships. She'll fly out to LA in August for meetings, mentorship and (fingers crossed) management.  Also announced in the Hollywood Reporter.

Black Sunday was also recently named one of three winners in the Atlanta Film Festival Screenplay Competition. Heidi attended their writers retreat in April 2016 and workshop Black Sunday with three industry professionals.
