5) Chad is working on putting “Work In Sanity” together this summer.  “Work In Sanity” is a feature film that Full Tilt Boogie has been working on for 6 years.  It is a combination of a number of shorts, which have screened every year at the Idaho International Film Festival for the last four years. “Breaking Cycles”, “Triple U”, “Captain Cannibal: Smoking Justice”, & “Passout” will be combined with new shorts to create a bewildering and entertaining movie about the imagination of a telemarketer. (Or at least that is what we hope).

Happy Summer!!!
