BREAKDOWN
SYNOPSIS:
The Mississippi Delta. 1969. The Supreme Court has put its foot down and in this last county, desegregation must dissolve. Poor, white sisters, Nola and Nell, one grounded by cynicism and the other by faith, live day-to-day. Until they discover a mixed-race, highly-educated sister they never knew they had. And in a place where separation begets isolation, difference turns out to be a saving grace.
**The role of Penny Tompkins has been pre-cast**
NOLA PARSONS
Female, mid to late 40s, white, the oldest sister; impatient, smart, wise-cracking; uses her sexuality as a tool and is fiercely protective of the underdog
NELL PARSONS COBB
Female, late 30s to early 40s, white, the middle sister; deeply religious and maternal, gentle and soft-spoken unless she’s cornered; an innocent who absorbs the beliefs of others
