“Sundown” winning Best Drama (Relationships) at the Texas Short Film Festival in Austin last weekend is a career milestone we’re proud to share with the incredible team behind the film.
The film, directed by Todd Hartsell and co‑written with Jeff LaGrone, tells the story of a faded one‑hit wonder who confronts the haunting truth behind his only hit song when the daughter of a lost love reappears with the past in her hands.
Led by poignant performances from Johnny Reno (Sin City), who also served as co-producer, and Tina Parker (Breaking Bad), the film is supported by a remarkably committed and talented ensemble.
We’re deeply grateful to the entire cast and crew—and to the many extras who gave their time and talent—to help bring Sundown to life. This award would not have been possible without them.
