One Weekend A Month is a powerful short film - almost 12 minutes long but this is a SUPERB piece and Renee truly shines.
Director: Eric Escobar
Screenwriters: None - the whole movie is improvised
Filmed: 2004
Lead Actor: Renee O'Connor (Meg)
Genre: Drama
Premise: "It's the story of a National Guardsman, who's a single mother of two children and gets called to go to the Iraqi war. But she's in a bind because she has no one to take care of her children. The film is a ten-minute series of phone calls. There is no script. The whole Thing is improvised."
