SHORT FILM:: "Jeremy" Scouting Locations - John C. Stennis Lock & Dam

John C. Stennis Lock & Dam

"Jeremy", a coming of age, crime suspense drama written by first time writer, Jonathan Durrah, alongside industry veteran, Paquita Hughes joined by director Chloe Mondesir, following her directorial debut, dramatic short film "Jacks", currently on the festival market.

Logline: Jeremy makes a mature decision to leave his small-time, dope boy ways behind him when obligations of fatherhood surface, only to be tested by his closest friends, in a small town where loyalty runs deeper than blood.

SCOUTING LOCATIONS - LOCK & DAM

Last year the Executive Producers and writers of "Jeremy", Jonathan Durrah and Paquita Hughes, and their team, began scouting locations in Columbus, MS for filming. To give you an idea of the setting of our film, take a gander at what could be the backdrop of this gritty tale.

The John C. Stennis Lock and Dam, formerly named Columbus Lock and Dam, is one of four lock and dam structures on the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway that generally lie along the original course of the Tombigbee River. It is located near Columbus, Mississippi, and impounds Columbus Lake. It is named for longtime U.S. Senator from Mississippi, John C. Stennis.
