Be one of the first to see Zeke Zelker’s highly anticipated movie BILLBOARD, a one-night-only sneak peek of the movie, years in the making. A Q&A with the filmmaker and a local entrepreneur will follow.

Casey Lindeweiler inherits WTYT 960 from his legendary radioman father only to discover that it’s on the brink of financial collapse. To right the sinking ship, Casey pulls out the oldest trick in radio, the wacky contest. His grand plan is to host a billboard-sitting contest where four people will live on a catwalk in front of a billboard for the chance to win a mobile home and “nine-sixty thousand” dollars. Unprepared for the spotlight, Casey rises to the challenge of running a business as he’s faced with relentless attacks from his competition, the local authorities trying to shut him down, the media’s interpretation of his contest, and mother nature. Casey struggles to keep his father’s legacy in-tact as he fights to stay independent!

Cast: John Robinson (ELEPHANT, LORDS OF DOGTOWN), Leo Fitzpatrick (KIDS, BULLY, GOTHAM), Independent Spirit Award winner Heather Matarazzo (WELCOME TO THE DOLLHOUSE, PRINCESS DIARIES) and Academy Award nominee, Golden Globe nominee, and Independent Spirit Award winner Eric Roberts (RUNAWAY TRAIN, INHERENT VICE, DARK KNIGHT), along with newcomers Alice Wills, Roy Shuler, Michael Fegley and Cristina Lucas Tissot, star in this truly independent movie about a maverick entrepreneur who attempts to overcome any hurdle that comes his way.
