The Bargain intends to develop, produce, and publicly exhibit an original feature-length Southern Gothic film rooted in folklore, ritual symbolism, and regional storytelling traditions. The project will translate research and thematic exploration into a fully realized cinematic work through writing, visual design, performance, sound, and collaborative artistic production.
Through the creation of the film and its subsequent exhibition at festivals and community screenings, the project seeks to engage audiences in reflection and dialogue around generational trauma, tradition, and cultural memory. The completed work will contribute to contemporary independent cinema by elevating Southern narratives and mythologies through an artist-driven, collaborative process.
