HOBOKEN - A Dark, Taut, Thriller By Laura Rohrman Opens This Month at Shetler Studios

Jack and Erica find love after a one-night stand leaves them hopelessly trying to uncover more of each other. Erica wants to be a famous actress and Jack, a mysterious Irishman, has the money to make her dreams come true - until a Russian screenplay, two million dollars in unmarked bills and taboo desires threaten to tear them apart. What is too much?

Hoboken is a high-voltage, psychological, romantic thriller that pushes the dark and taboo and will make you wince more often than is comfortable.

A devastatingly brutal love story with Russian espionage, dark taboo subjects: guns, a rotten movie script and some actors dreaming of glory.
