Pieces of Easter (2013)
Alza Reese Bennett is a young African-American executive traveling cross country to be reunited with her estranged family for the Easter holiday. An auto mishap en route leaves her stranded, and Alza winds up on the doorstep of a reclusive farmer named Lincoln whose main goal in life is to be left alone. In the moment of Alza's greatest desperation, a deal is struck - Lincoln and his antique Chevy pickup will transport her the rest of the way for the price of $1000; the only caveat - no interstate highways. Amidst nonstop head-butting (attributed to Alza's spoiled arrogance and Lincoln's general grumpiness), the mismatched pair sets out on a three-day odyssey of misadventures along the highways and byways of America, where they encounter rat-infested motels, convenience store holdups, rural rabbit stalkers, and a star struck couple from the local trailer park. Best of all, they are forced to encounter each other, as the two worlds of the princess and the hermit collide at every turn.

    This is the best Easter movie I've seen in a long time!
    I love the movies that Kelly's Filmworks releases. They are wholesome films that you can let your entire family see. This movie was so funny, I laughed through most of it. Jefferson Moore and Christina Karis work so well together. And the supporting cast members were just as amazing; the studio players who have been in other productions of KFW's, as well as actors that I haven't seen before. The entire ensemble cast made for a very enjoyable movie. Even the restored truck that was used for the majority of the film fit in so well with the entire theme. All that, along with the great music, made this one of the best films that I've seen. I hope that everyone takes the opportunity to watch this wonderful film, and also sees the other movies from this amazing film company.
