Meskada
Some crimes find their criminals.
Directed by Josh Sternfeld
Produced by DeerJen, Aliquot Films
A morally complex crime drama about a small-town murder investigation that exposes the corruption and complicity lurking beneath a community's surface solidarity.
Small-town detective Noah Cordin is called to solve a juvenile homicide that occurred during a home burglary in his affluent town of Hilliard. The dead boy's mother, Allison Connor, is a member of the Meskada County Board of Commissioners, and a powerful woman in Hilliard; and the entire township rallies together in solidarity - to support her and Detective Cordin's efforts to find the killers.
