Here's my pitch --

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During my college and single days in Toronto and New York,
I became friends with some aspiring performers - dancers,
musicians, singers and stand-up comedians. What I learned
and experienced during that formative time led to me to write
the screenplay "Marcus and Faith", which reflects my observations
of good people enduring and struggling against substance abuse,
domestic violence/abuse and psychological torture. But somehow
they managed to pull through and subsist, fighting just to
pay the rent, in the hopes of one day achieving their desires - not
only to find fame, but also true romance and love. For them, survival
is dependent upon having the right partner as a windbreak, preventing
each other from falling into the abyss of self-destruction.
Sadly, relationships don't always work out and can worsen the
lives of individuals, leading to desperate times - poverty, hard
drugs, alcohol, prostitution and pornography while others struggle
with becoming a servant to their lover's drug-infested lifestyle.
So is there light at the end of this tunnel? Is this hellish path
worth following to become a true artist-performer? These are the
concepts and issues addressed in "Marcus and Faith".

With this script, I wanted to provide a prescription for survival
on a cinematic level, to express a truth that encourages viewers
not to escape from life but to find it, and ultimately to touch the
heart of the new generation as it comes into its own.

The story follows the jagged and disjointed lives of Marcus,
a stand-up comedian, and Faith, an aspiring Broadway dancer.
He's addicted to painkillers and she's hiding a dirty family secret.
Like two runaway trains, racing into the past as they try to save
each other from themselves. Will they survive the ride? Will they
jump off before they pass the point of no return? Or are they just
awaiting the inevitable fiery crash that lies ahead?

Sincerely,

Benjamin Ray
