A provocative digital feature that dares to probe the question: What the f*ck is going on in American filmmaking? FLMKR is a quirky, comic thriller, which traces the odyssey of independent filmmaker Veronica Davidson, as professional setbacks are amplified by personal betrayals; then she realizes something more sinister has taken over the film industry in America.

FLMKR explores the agonies of film making, from personal compromises, to the concessions required of an entertainment-addicted society. All seen through the eyes of one paranoid filmmaker, living and working in the heart of the “conspiracy capitol of the world”, Dallas, Texas.

"John Carstarphen ("Stealing Home") is picking up where “Living in Oblivion” left off. In FLMKR, shot in nine days in Dallas last November, the local screenwriter-director takes a look at how independent film do (or don’t) get made – and why. “The title’s abbreviated, like our budget,” says producer Rebecca Rice. “We’re kind of keeping a lid on it.” But she did say the comedy, now in post production, stars Linda Coleman as a director who encounters a full-tilt boogie of obstacles that make indie filmmkaking such fun.” Jane Sumner - The Dallas Morning News.
