I won’t be out covering a game Thursday. I’ll be at the Gillioz in my role as President of the Missouri Film Alliance of Springfield. That’s really just an excuse in order to see some great moviemaking by the 80+ teams who submitted films to the fifth annual SATO48 Film Festival this year. That stands for Springfield and the Ozarks 48 Hour Film Challenge. If you don’t have a daughter playing Thursday night, you should get yourself down to the Gillioz Thursday night and see some great films. Like this one!

Done by a pair of Hillcrest TV graduates, you’ll want to watch this multiple times for all of the things you missed the first few times enjoying the performances by Jeff Houghton and Sarah Reule. Rock on!

Short Film. Musical. Comedy.
She’s allergic to cats. His best friend is a cat. How will they ever make it work?
