ComingSoon is excited to debut the Ashes to Dust trailer for Clark Childers’ upcoming short film. It will debut at Dances With Films on Wednesday, June 26, at 5 p.m. PT. It is the first film from Childers’ Bats at a Birthday Production and stars Adam Walton and Diane Gaeta.
“If Susan Anne Pratt Hanesley ever wanted something for her two children, it was that they would simply get along. Now that she’s gone, Danny and Elizabeth find themselves in uncharted but familiar territory. Danny moved in with Mom to help her in her final years, and Elizabeth was left in charge of the will. The only problem is, there is no will,” says the synopsis.
“Ashes to Dust is a story about two very different-minded siblings who must navigate the passing of their mother as best they can and figure out a way to come out whole on the other end. There are big questions regarding the family home, her things, and most importantly, where to put her ashes. Danny believes a Ouija board might give them the answers they so desperately seek. Elizabeth thinks he’s ridiculous. When the power goes out, they have little else to do, so they give the board a shot, and it appears ‘Mom’ just might have something to say. What they determine is a most fundamental lesson: she’s gone, and it’s about them now.”
