Every year in the United States there are 30,000 murders.
In that same time there are 60,000 suicides.
Wouldn't it be great if we could get these people together?
Welcome to the latest independent film by One by One Films, The Altruist. It is a story of death, murder, and deceit with flavorings of romance and compassion. It will probably be Jack Kevorkian's favorite independent movie!
A little about the movie:
The small company Terminal Assist specializes in counseling people and helping them through the toughest of times in life. They offer legitimate services to needy people. But, oftentimes, there are no alternatives to compassionate help but the most extreme ones. Some people are just so bad off with a terminal illness that they need instant relief, to kill the pain.
If you have thousands of murderers out there, and thousands of people wanting to opt out of their terminal problems, why not marry the two? Everyone is happy (or happily dead) in the end and the law is none the wiser. If anyone found out, there could be problems. Boy, could there be problems...

The Altruist Wins Its First Film Award!
|
In April 2005, The Altruist picked up the Audience Award for Best Feature of the Fest at the Bare Bones Film Festival in Oklahoma. Congratulations to Mick McCleery and the rest of the cast and crew!
As some of you may know, Track 16 picked up the very same award in 2001. It is always rewarding to have one's work recognized, especially after all the long hours (and money) put into making a feature length film. Here's to the continued success of The Altruist and congrats, again, to the folks at One by One Films!
