Escaping Freedom takes a look at a pair of siblings who have very different outlooks on what it means to “be free”. Vincent (Patrick Green), a pastor in the midst of a crisis of faith, is pushed to the limits by his free-spirited but troubled actress sister Krystal. At it’s core, the film wishes to look at awareness, acceptance, and love. Kelly Godell was cast as Vincent’s hedonistic sister Krystal for the final episode of ‘Letters’ and will be back for the feature film as well. Further casting includes Jonathan Miles as a fellow pastor falling for Vincent, Brian Koch (of Blitzen Trapper) as Krystal’s theatre director and mentor, and Laura Welsh as a single mother in Vincent’s congregation. Also cast are Portland actors Jill Sughrue, Bethany Jacobs, Jeffrey Arrington, Adam Dunlap, Jonathan Wexler, and Stephanie Leet.
