Photo Flash: FREE at [Inside] the Ford

FREE - A whimsical comedy that explores the boundaries of friendship and gravity. Without the aid of mechanical devices, we can only slip the bonds of Earth in our dreams and imaginations. But no one seems to have told that to Marshall "Free" Gunther. Free is a floater who has to work at keeping himself tethered to the ground. He wants more than anything to be normal, but best friend Stoney thinks Free's gift is a miracle that everyone should see. When Free decides he would rather clean motel rooms than defy gravity for indifferent audiences, he finds that the gift he doesn't want has touched more lives than he realized.
