Noah Henry, one of the lead actors, says, "I have been a huge
movie fan for many years but never thought I'd actually get to be a big part of
making one; and even two! We put in a lot of hard work, but the reception has
been far greater than I could've imagined and that makes it all more than worth
it."
Writer/Director Zak Luken has already seen previous success, producing other
short films like Hate Is Not Welcome Here, which recently won a Mid-American
EMMY for Best Short Form - Non-Fiction Programming, and was nominated for 6
other international awards. And, just this week, word has come that The Plan has
officially been selected to be a part of IMDB's Indie Short Fest in Los Angeles,
CA.
"Seeing a year’s worth of hard work paying off is so rewarding. I wouldn't be
here though without my cast & crew. They are the main reason why this all
worked, so it would be criminal if I didn't thank them!" says Zak.
