STRANDED

Written by Edward J. Walsh

Directed by Tim Tavcar

Vickie Schultz. a reporter, is not happy. Let go by her newspaper in
Cincinnati, she found a new job in New Jersey, leaving behind her family,
friends, and a cheating fiancé. Vickie has been told she’ll be assigned to
a breaking story about the Mayor and his newly-appointed female Police
Chief. Instead, she is suddenly made to cover the arrival of a whale on the
New Jersey shore — a huge sperm whale, like Moby Dick. The sooner this
whale returns to the ocean or dies, the sooner Vickie can get back to her
Mayor’s story. But the struggling whale’s plight won’t be resolved quickly.
Vickie’s career ambitions become jeopardized, her past haunts her, and she
blames the whale for being too stupid to head for deep water.
