HEARTLAND is a wonderfully tense family drama directed by Maura Anderson, who production managed the Oscar nominated independent film, WINTER’S BONE. The film is co-written and produced by Oklahoma native Velinda Godfrey, who also plays the lead role.
HEARTLAND tells the story of a young Oklahoma artist who lands back in her mother’s stifling household after her girlfriend dies, but finds temporary escape in a reckless weekend affair with her brother’s girlfriend.
The mother is played perfectly by veteran actress Beth Grant, who has starred in three Oscar winning films and is also starring in GREAT PLAINS here at deadCenter. Laura Spencer, who plays the girlfriend, is an Oklahoma actress who now stars on THE BIG BANG THEORY and SLEEPY HOLLOW.
