"Potter's Field" USC Thesis Film


Written and Directed by Brad Crowe

Produced by Cat Youell, Fawaz Al-Matrouk, and Brad Crowe
Produced at the University of Southern California

Potter's Field is a dark comedy about an impoverished teenager named Daryl who learns first-hand about death after his mentally handicapped brother dies in a freak bathroom accident. With no money to cremate or hold a funeral, a numb Daryl decides to dispose of the body himself. In between searching for caskets at Costco, attempting to sell the body to science, and illegally cruising down carpool lanes with his dead brother by his side, Daryl learns one of the toughest lessons in life: how to grieve for the loss of a loved one.
