A HOMELESS MAN WITNESSES A KIDNAPPING, AND WHEN HE HUNTS DOWN THE PERPETRATOR HE UNCOVERS A DIRTY SECRET IN SUBURBIA. Credits: Written/Directed by Tony Gapastione Produced by Ola Soler, Jessica Musgrave, Jayson Johnson Cinematography by Matthew Mayotte Starring Bruce Beatty, Anjelah Johnson-Reyes, Dove Meir Special music by Loretta Devine Sound designed by Mathew Waters Music Composed by John W. Snyder SYNOPSIS Larry camped out in the same alley every night. He always kept to himself and never bothered anyone, until he saw an injustice unfold right before his eyes. He did everything in his power to stop it but trying to stop a kidnapping almost cost him his life. He was beaten down and left half dead. With all the strength he could muster, he picked himself up to hunt down the perpetrator. Everything within compelled him to take a stand, to right this wrong, and rescue some girls, kids. He never expected to uncover a hidden crime in a perfectly landscaped suburban neighborhood. Will Larry’s story be accepted or twisted? Is he an acceptable witness or possible suspect? Things are not always what they seem.

https://www.humblepastorwill.com/ Will is a prideful (and misogynist, homophobic) pastor on a power trip. He thinks he is doing the "work of God." Will believes he's "preaching the truth" but instead he’s harming his church, destroying his family and dividing his community. That's when supernatural, unexplainable things begin to happen. Is it God? Is it Satan? Or did the church ladies conspire against him to teach him a lesson, Old Testament style? This is one Sunday School class you don't want to miss. God bless America, right?

But we can tell you this; dysfunction, bad employees, and bad managers are everywhere, and it’s time to speak up, and tell the truth and make some changes. Be calm, eat a cupcake, and have the conversation already. Dedicated to those who tell the truth, even when it’s hard.
TESTER was written, produced, and edited in TEN DAYS! Circa 2011. This is the ONLY CUT we have, and it has some sound glitches (see if you can find them).
