Morsanutto, a Norwalk native and founder of NYC-based Silvermine Productions, describes his 15-minute film as “’Saturday Night Fever’ meets ‘The Graduate’ in the world of ‘Superbad.’” See earlier Daily Voie story HERE.

Many of the movie's scenes were filmed in Norwalk and Westport and, according to Morsanutto, he used dozens of students from Norwalk and Wilton high schools to help out as production assistants and as extras.
