In GETTING ED LAID, Ed Randall, an 85-year-old college professor hires a hooker for a last hurrah. Afraid to take Viagra, he's waiting to get a call back from a cardiologist when the quirky older hooker shows up....and funny happens...proving no matter what your age, life can still surprise you!

In GLENDA, Glenda lived with Liz and Tom in their magnificent house. Now she has killed herself in her room - and Liz and Tom are falling apart. A moving and visually stunning adult drama written and directed by and featuring Barton Bund with Jennifer Jelsema.
