Spark Plug

A short film about relationships & growth

Who likes to be stuck with their ex?

Emma didn’t want to come home. She does whatever she can to stay away most of the time. So, of course, while she’s hightailing out of town and back to the life she’s dreamed of for years, her one attachment to this old life decides to keep her around a little longer.
Her car broken down, her cell service nonexistent, and her spirit near broken; she is forced to call the one person she would hate to see the most for help - her mechanic ex-boyfriend Oliver.
The two must reconcile their differences, and realize that the other has done a lot of growing, if they want to make it through this repair with their dignity in tact.
Starring Gabrielle Johnsen & Terry Richard King
Written & Directed by Cole J Sheldon
