What if you could leave your life?
An unhappily married CEO jumps from a Connecticut bridge, body never found. A troubled flight attendant still mourning her lover lost on 9-11 goes missing from a cruise ship. An Arizona school teacher can’t reconcile the sexual compromise he’s been maneuvered into and steals money from a student kiosk and disappears. An internet sensation crosses the last line left and self-pleasures in front of an audience of millions and is spotted in Virginia boarding a hot air balloon that’s empty when it crash lands. 500,000 Americans go missing every year, 1500 never return. Where are they and is there a connection? Yes.
Welcome to Out Clause.

Written and directed by Ernest Thompson, this film adaptation of his one-act play The Constituent—a grizzled New Hampshire woodsman writes scathing and profane letters to his Senator in Washington, D.C., who finally has had enough and comes to pay a (not so) friendly visit—is more timely than ever. And even funnier. And it’s crazy funny. And reassuringly optimistic, too, proving that authentic human connection can still trump our political differences. Well, maybe not trump. Starring Ernest and Emmy winner Gordon Clapp in the roles Burgess Meredith and Ned Beatty originally played on TV, along with New York’s darling Lisa Bostnar, is presently in post-production.
