The Panhandler (story for a short film)


"The Panhandler" is a hypothetical short film of 5-10 minutes, written by Glenn Campbell. The treatment linked below describes the main dialog and general sequence of events, with details to be filled in later.

Synopsis: A homeless alcoholic experiments with marketing techniques.

The 11-page treatment is available here as a PDF file

The story was inspired in part by the photo above, which I took in Seattle. Here is the original version on Facebook.

This story was concieved on 12/19/12 and written on 12/20/12. This document was announced on the same day it was written with this tweet.
