René and Frankie, two best friends, make the best of going to high school by dream­ing up high-fashion photo shoots and brib­ing their sib­lings to model for them. René loves his fash­ion mag­a­zines and design­ing clothes. Frankie lives for her cam­era and punk rock. The drama they dream up in their fash­ion shoots becomes very real when they end up fight­ing over their class­mate Sasha, a shy soc­cer player with a soft spot for poems by Pushkin.

Death to Prom (McKnight Screenwriting Fellowship win­ner 2012, final­ist at Sundance Screenwriting Lab and Francis Ford Coppola’s Zoetrope Screenplay Competition) is a bizarre love tri­an­gle loaded with enough glam­our and atti­tude for “Project Runway” & Vogue, but with enough heart to make Molly Ringwald bite her lip with anticipation.
