MOVIE ONLYThis is a story about women seeking personal enlightenment – a modern fairy tale that makes us laugh at ourselves and reminds us that happiness is in the last place we look for it – inside.
Through intuitive powers Doris accurately predicts earthquakes supposedly bringing the end of the world and she becomes an overnight media sensation when her home is overrun with reporters, Trekkies, UFO freaks, and true believers seeking redemption.
As Doris selflessly invites a handful of the sincere into her home, they turn her life and family inside out for the world to see.
Felix, an unscrupulous broadcast journalist infiltrates Doris group with the intention of exposing her as a fraud - and receives the surprise of his life when Doris channels the voice of his murdered daughter.
While Doris’ predictions come true and the clock ticks down, tensions within the house explode. Doris throws the husband out, and finds that niece Tallulah has suffered more than just abandonment from her mother and decides to heal and protect her.
When spurned in his affections toward Doris by an innocent deception, Felix plots humiliation for Doris before live news cameras. But Doris has a few surprises of her own, and changes Felix’s life forever in this modern fairytale about News at 11, and the notable absence of our Creator.
This unusual and spiritually subversive "PSI-Fi" movie suggests a NEW WAY of KNOWING.

Victor Goss - Director - A camera has always been in Victor’s hands. With his parents on vacation at age 4, he wandered Yosemite Valley carrying an Ansco 620 around his neck trying to duplicate the photography of Ansel Adams he’d seen lining the walls in the gift shop at the Ahwahnee Hotel. Back home he was hypnotized by the moving 35mm images of B-Movies dancing in the arclight of the projector gate from the booth of his dad’s drive-in movie theater in Santa Maria, CA. After running errands as a gopher on an AIP summer BEACH PARTY film and picking up work doing every job on the set, Victor saved up for a motion picture camera of his own and began shooting and directing National TV commercials, and winning important awards. Victor’s background in writing - and commercials - brought him to the hit TV series WONDER YEARS as cinematographer and 2d unit director. The Golden Globe and multiple Emmy-winning GABRIEL’S FIRE (James Earl Jones) followed where Victor - along with a handful of fellow TV commercial-making alumni – brought a visual revolution to dramatic TV that continues to advance to this day. His resume includes a Showtime remake of the movie CARRIE, a stint on multi-cam sticom GROUNDED FOR LIFE, the premium-cable black magic thriller THE DRESDEN FILES, the Don Johnson actioner NASH BRIDGES and the effects filled feature UNSTOPPABLE starring Wesley Snipes among many other major credits.
