FILMS IN PRODUCTION

Spunky Z is the story about Cricket, a confused teenager, amateur scientist, budding romantic...a boy with a big problem: his mother's cancer. In his struggle to save his mother, he invents a serum that leads to his own addiction, failed romance, and ultimately having to face his mother's mortality.

Donald Whittier has produced seven feature length films since 2001, Spunky Z is the fourth feature length narrative that he has directed. His other directed works include Bulkhead, Teddy, and Fight Circle. Donald specializes in microbudget features and hopes to create, produce and direct a successful, microbudget TV series.

The fights convey a level of brutality that is refreshing and at times shocking for a modern movie. The technical expertise of the fighters, combined with a compelling story, promises to captivate audiences with its unique approach to the martial arts film genre.

Of all the modern notions, the worst is this: that domesticity is dull. Inside the home they say, is dead decorum and routine; outside is adventure and variety. But the truth is that the home is the only place of liberty, the only spot on earth where a man can alter arrangements suddenly, make an experiment or indulge in a whim. The home is not the one tame place in a world of adventure, it is the one wild place in a world of rules and tasks.

-G. K. Chesterton
