The Screenwriters Panel Roll-Call

The panel of screenwriters introduces themselves, ranging from Hallmark holiday specialists to avant-garde poets and a man who writes about a student fucking himself through his graduating class.

"I wrote 17 Years Old Period. It's a coming-of-age story about a girl who gets her period at 17."

"Daniel Norway, avant-garde. I write mostly in prose, lyrical poetry, and in silence."

"My name is Ron Buttons. I wrote the screenplay Fuck Run."
