A longtime fixture in the Los Angeles music scene, artist Stephen Moramarco once shared a split seven-inch single with a then-unknown Beck, and currently fronts Silver Lake's longest-running soul/punk/swing band, The Abe Lincoln Story. Now, the single, unemployed 40-something man-child thinks he has finally been discovered by a documentary film crew after years of languishing in obscurity. Soon, he discovers that his parents are actually attempting to collect evidence for a "life intervention." We follow Steve, his family, his best friend and his former girlfriends as they all lurch towards the day that will forever after be known as The Great Intervention.
Actor/writer/director Stephen Moramarco raised $5000 on Kickstarter for the project. There was no script, just a detailed outline; actors improvised within a structured scenario, and most of the scenes were done in one take. In addition to the film, Moramarco has created a meme - an interactive web experience that surrounds and connects the characters of the film. Please visit www.greatintervention.info and have a look around.
