April 8th 2022 - Screenwriter Jill Elaine Hughes (MIGHT COME A WINDSTORM)

MIGHT COME A WINDSTORM was the winner of “Best Feature Screenplay” at the March 2022 WILDsound Screenplay Festival.

“Members of the extended McCraw family, a working-class family of Appalachian origin, gather together at the elder McCraws’ house for Thanksgiving dinner. Old demons are dug up, new relationships are built, and the secret of the family’s mixed-race heritage are revealed, much to the shock of several of the family’s racist members. This ensemble-based screenplay provides laughs, tears, and a deeply moving story that will appeal to art house and mainstream audiences alike. A white-trash SECRETS AND LIES.”
