Russ and Dru
Donation protected
Russ’ ex-girlfriend has moved on. Russ has not. At all. He’s obsessed with checking her Instagram and the ribbing from his brother Zion is not making it any better. Dru is an out of work actress who is obsessed with checking Bumble for love because of course it’s the only way. Right? As we follow their day, we realize these two are perfect for each other, they even complete each others sentences. Are they on a crash for one another? Will it be love at first sight? Russ and Dru is a short film meant to serve as a proof of concept for the feature film ICARUS AND DRUSILLA (Email [email redacted] for more info)
