    Anniversary (2013)
    Film (Short and Drama) Editor "Anniversary" is the tale of a Husband and Wife who plan to spice up their 10th anniversary celebration by hiring an exotic Dancer to perform for them in their hotel room. The evening takes an unexpected turn when their interaction with the Dancer reveals more than mere erotic intentions, testing the couple's relationship and exposing the emotional scars of everyone involved. "Anniversary" explores the question, "What if a fantasy realized ends up revealing a life not fully lived?". The Wife's existence seems as polished and perfect as the enormous diamond she sports on her left hand, courtesy of her high powered and affluent Husband.

But as their allotted time together ticks away, the fantasy takes a back seat to the reality of who these people really are... and the cost of living a lie. Written by Producers
