Stopwatch / Local Film, Premiere (at Amazing Things)
Stopwatch (Local Film, Premiere) *** The first (and probably only) public screening of an extremely low budget sci-fi flick made entirely in Framingham and starring local residents and locations, followed by an awards ceremony for the cast and crew. *** Stopwatch: When a popular science teacher dies suddenly, Framingham High School students are devastated. During the funeral, Zach steals the urn, which contains both the ashes and (unbeknownst to him) Dr. Barkley’s treasured gold pocket watch. Zach and fellow students Alex and Erik meet to scatter the ashes in the Sudbury River, and while his friends’ backs are turned, Zach is abducted by aliens seeking the watch. Will Alex and Erik discover the powers of the watch in time to rescue Zach from the clutches of the treacherous Commander Murnk and save the lives of the watch’s inventors? Of course they will! *** Black tie/evening wear optional! *** Proceeds will go to Amazing Things Art Center and Access Framingham. *** The Amazing Things Art Center, 160 Hollis Street in Framingham, MA. Call (508) 405-2787 or visit website for more info or to order tickets.
