Our message is simple: Dream Big, We'll Show You How.

It’s the first time that Jackson meets his father’s youngest brother, Anthony. His father tells them that his uncle has to stay with them for sometime, because he has important things to do in their town. 
He doesn’t see anything wrong with the idea, until he finds out that it is so hard to connect with his own uncle. He seldom talks and is seemingly detached, and it brings Jackson a kind of discomfort. One day, when he has to go inside the guest room where his uncle stays, an extraordinary-looking bag catches his attention, and for a curious child like him, he believes that there is something inside his uncle’s bag that will help him determine why he is such a person who almost doesn’t talk.
Will Jackson discover something interesting inside his uncle’s bag?

    Aspiring filmmaker June Masterson has high hopes for her first documentary, the true story of the disappearance of famed mystery author Greer Larkin. June learned about the vanishing at age fourteen, locked down on her family’s isolated commune. Now, the deeper she digs into the project, the darker the story gets.
    
    Everyone has a theory. Greer’s mother, Blanche, and her best friend, Rachel, believe that Greer’s fiancé, Jonathan, is the culprit. Greer’s agent is convinced that Greer committed suicide after a debilitating bout of writer’s block. And Jonathan claims it was either Greer’s controlling mother or Rachel, whose attachment to Greer went way beyond friendship.
    
    In desperation, Rachel gives June a suitcase full of Greer’s most personal writings in hopes of finding proof against Jonathan. Then Rachel turns up dead. As June pores over Greer’s writings, she makes a devastating discovery that could finally reveal the truth about the author’s fate. But now, June finds herself in the sights of a killer who’ll stop at nothing to keep their darkest secret

    There be those who say that things and places have souls, and there be those who say they have not; I dare not say, myself, but I will tell of The Street.” 
    So starts The Street, a short story about the dangers of leaving foreigners running amok in your own backyard. One could say that, just like things and places, stories also have souls: it’s in their themes, the character arcs, the prevailing perspectives, in the emotions they try to evoke. If that is true, the soul of The Street is a cruel and rotten one, based on fear, entitlement, and hatred. The Street becomes the symbol of the nation. 
    Narrated by award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti this short story by H.P. Lovecraft is both thought-provoking and prophetic.
