Director: Julie Rappaport. Smokin’ Yogi Films is casting for a new, web-series entitled: “Abnormally Normal” The story begins with Jenevive handing Max a “Dear John” letter of divorce. Jenevive, Max and their seven year old daughter Judy are each uniquely faced with how to cope with the new dynamic, in the midst of a whirlwind of adverse situations dealt out by their community and the people they welcome into their lives. The story is told through all of their perspectives, exploring their flashbacks and dreams and delving into the depths of their minds where their personal council of archetypes bicker and banter about which path to take in the current dilemma.
