50 ACRES OF DIRT IN EASTERN NEVADA
By Stephan Clark
A young alcoholic who lives for nothing more than the next drink is forced to reevaluate his life after his self-destructive behavior inadvertently harms his estranged girlfriend and her family.
SYNOPSIS:
"Like a country version of LEAVING LAS VEGAS, this project is a mesmerizing mix sadness, sarcasm, and self-destruction.The complex structure of Sammy’s character makes him a charming and consuming trainwreck that the audience doesn’t want to look away from. This film is a triumphantly bittersweet and does what a good film should do—takes the audience on an emotional journey." (9/10 review on blcklst)

Hi Stephan! I really like this idea, and I think the logline is almost perfect. The one recommendation I have is to be a little more specific about who "the one person he loves" is. It will make more of an emotional connection with the reader if we know it's his mother, girlfriend, etc. Great work!
