Abstract
A feature length screenplay. Here is a synopsis: In the near future America is being ravaged by massive hurricanes. The government is providing little in the way of proper frontline relief, and the economy is crashing. Charlie Braxton is CEO of a stock broking firm, and he decides to lay people off to keep his company afloat. When the president and vice-president are assassinated, he is arrested and found guilty of financial crimes based on new legislation. He agrees to join a new "rehabilitation" program that sends him to the frontlines of the hurricane relief effort, placing him in a group run by one of the workers he laid off. On this frontline Charlie must learn how to properly value people, or face being alone both on the hurricane front and in his life.
