Six-Time Internationally Award-Winning Short Film
Screenwriter & Producer
"Poignant and Powerful." -Selig Film News

plot:
A woman fleeing domestic violence finds refuge on the road in a community of boondockers. Their innate knowledge of the terms of her exile is esoteric, as they know all too well: everyone is running from something. When her cruel captor tracks her down, these strangers become unceasing allies, no matter the cost.
Inspired by true events.

The Swiss Army Romance
April wrote this pilot which was awarded as a Quarterfinalist in the Final Draft Big Break Competition, a Semi-Finalist at the ScreenCraft Fellowship Competition 2022, and soared to #11 in thriller television pilots on Coverfly's Red List, in the top 7% of all 102,857 projects on the site.
Plot:
In a one-horse, two-Superfund Site town, an enigmatic teenage girl and her misfit friends band together to evade harsh realities; when their restless curiosity leads them to discover the body of a missing classmate, their quest for justice against a venomous enemy may be the last thing they ever do.
praise for the swiss army romance
"The strongest aspect of your script is without a doubt your voice. Through Sarah's voiceovers and your scene description, you are able to paint incredibly detailed scenes with little words. The central conflict line is gripping. You're able to utilize tropic high school drama in new ways, while also weaving in a massive conspiracy. I wasn't ready for this script to end and would absolutely watch the next episode."
