The Atlanta Film Festival is pleased to announce the six winners of its first Atlanta Film Festival Screenplay Competition. The six were chosen from among over 200 entries submitted. They are: Appartion by Steven Brooks (Suwanee, GA) When a young artist and her boyfriend move into an old Victorian apartment building, she sees frightening visions of dead girls and suspects something powerful within herself may be attracting them. Molewhackers by Yarrow Wayman (Tacoma, WA) The story of an alien thug with a death wish and two video arcade junkies who unwittingly help him rethink his life while trying to avoid becoming his next victims. Pentimenti by Jennifer Deaton (Los Angeles, CA) In rural Georgia, three very different people are brought together by the death of a woman each loved. The Seventh Daughter by Bret Wood (College Park, GA) In the 1920s, a washed-up carnival magician trains his young daughter to become a phony psychic. As she gains notoriety, the girl struggles to escape her father's command, only to fall prey to an ambitious scientist and wealthy clients who are equally deranged. Vera by Caitlin McCarthy (Worcester, MA) Based on the true story of Vera Laska who, as a young Catholic teen, defied statistics and lasted three years as a Czech Resistance fighter (instead of the average six months); survived Auschwitz as a political prisoner; and escaped the Nazis during a death march. Zeroes and Ones by Avi Weider (Brooklyn, NY) In creating an intelligent machine out of discarded computer parts, a young woman uncovers her grandmother's long-buried secret of her survival from Auschwitz and finds a release from her own haunting memories.
