SHORTFILMTEXAS (SFT): What is your web series “Throwing Stones” about?
BART VAN BEMMEL, JASON WHEELER (BVB/JW): When a group of high schoolers have to attend Saturday School they must work together to overcome their differences in over to survive when students end up missing.
The concept of Throwing Stones derives from the sociologist theory on broken windows. A broken window is left unfixed in a neighborhood; it signals to that community it’s acceptable for that type of behavior to take place. These ideas compound until the neighborhood becomes decayed and unable to achieve its past grandeur. Now apply the theory to schools and replace broken windows with broken students, as the antagonist eliminates the unacceptable element that walks the halls of Blair High School.
