Time to get the band back together
Estranged bandmates reunite when the drummer throws himself an unexpected bachelor party.
Cheap beer, jam sessions, and a pool – what could go wrong? Between years of unspoken resentment, off-key vibes, and one member totally losing the plot, their final performance ends with one killer finale.
Directed by Joey Sawyer
writers club films
writers club films is an independent film collective founded in 2024 by close friends, Molly Costa, Joey Sawyer, and Chris Bouchard. writers club films is a true evolution from regular "writers club" meetups throughout their time studying Film/Media production at the University of Rhode Island.
After college, the group continued to make short films, music videos, and sketches in the Boston area. In 2024, Sawyer finished his first feature length screenplay, and then he immediately finished a second one! Don't Make Friends is that movie. Shot over the summer of '24 in southern Rhode Island over 14 days, DMF was made with a skeleton crew and almost all non-actors! Follow along for this journey with our first movie and for future ones! We have big plans :)
