Justin Hannah's "Consignment" to screen as part of "Unscripted" film series
Posted December 21, 2013

Justin Hannah's award-winning film "Consignment" is set to screen as part of "Unscripted," a six week independent film series taking place January 11 through February 22 in Owensboro, Kentucky. Now in its third season, the highly successful film series boasts a unique approach: each film actually plays twice, the second time featuring a live, interactive audio commentary by the film's director or actors. Two films are typically shown each night of the series, along with musical performances and prize giveaways. For its third season, "Unscripted" has attracted filmmakers from locales as distant as Utah, California, and Canada to participate in the unique, spontaneous format.

"Consignment" will screen Saturday, January 18, with a live commentary by Justin Hannah. The film will be paired with "One Night After Babysitting" with commentary by Daniel Benedict. The night's showing will also feature live music by indie film composer Matt Branham. Admission for the film series is free, and drinks and popcorn will be offered free to attendees. "Unscripted" is sponsored by Verite Cinema and hosted by filmmaker P.J. Starks.

"Consignment" is a stylish period drama written and directed by Justin Hannah, starring Abbra Smallwood, Margaret Wuertz, Jake Gilliam and Jessica McGill, with cinematography by Lee Clements and music by Robert Casal.

Described in reviews as "an alluring, multi-layered film experience" and "a beautifully realized, thought provoking short film," the movie has drawn comparisons to Alfred Hitchcock and David Lynch. "Consignment" won awards for Best Cinematography at the 2015 Blaquefyre Independent Film Festival, Best Kentucky Short at the 2014 Autumn Shorts Film Festival, Best Short Film at the 2013 World Independent Film Expo, and Most Original Film at the 2013 Floyd Film Festival.
