LOGLINE
Three children face a life-changing decision while at play in a dense suburban forest.
SYNOPSIS
Pennsylvania 1979: Darrell picks up his bb gun to play soldier in the woods with his friend Eugene who has secretly invited Lizzie, the neighborhood firebrand, to tag along. The three children encounter war, death, jealousy, and adolescence on an otherwise tranquil afternoon.
CAST
Dylan Cleary / Eugene
Dylan is an accomplished boy scout, Star Level, and is a natural outdoorsman. In 2009 he began acting and has three independent films under his belt. His activities include tennis and water-skiing. Among his many pets, Dylan has a dog, cat, frogs and fish. Dylan lives in New Jersey with his Mom, Dad, and sister Seana.
Emily Cofer / Lizzie
Emily comes from a theatre background, having performed in shows such as ”Annie”, “Miracle on 34th Street” and “The Sound of Music.” Her work in film began with student productions and eventually some principal roles in independent shorts destined for festivals. New Territory marks her latest and definitely most challenging venture. When not working on a script, Emily can be found playing with her pet Siamese cat, organizing her rock collection or practicing Jiu-jitsu forms.
Adam Campbell / Darrell
Adam first got his start in acting in 2008 when he attended an open audition for ACT. In 2009 he was accepted into the John Robert Powers acting program and has been with them ever since. Adam also recently put on his first theater production as Peter Pan. Adam excels in school and was accepted into John Hopkins University for Talented Youth where he was asked to take the SAT’s in 7th grade. Adam’s passions are acting, football, paintball, hunting, shooting (he recently achieved pro marksman), and spending time with his family.
