Audience Member 1: So when I first started to see the plot come out I was like, Oh this guy’s not racist he’s just legitimately upset that this guy’s dodging the ticket, right?

Audience Member 1: I hope my geriatric years are spent in such a hilarious situation…

Watch the Audience FEEDBACK of “Family on Board”

Matthew Toffolo: First off, I have to ask….what happened at the end? Did he take off in the car with the family like most of the audience members thought?

George: He leaves in Ms. FREE-MAN’s Audi (Urban dictionary: Audi adj. or v. to leave, or to be leaving).

He takes his brother’s advice. His family is on board with the plan … wait for the feature.

Matthew: What motivated you to make this film?

George: Three things …

1) I lived downtown durring 9/11 & I probably suffered from a degree on PTSD. The towers striking the towers actually woke me from bed.

2) The Joe Horn story in Texas, he saw 2 men breaking into his neighbor’s home &…
