Part 1: CAST IN GRAY F. Timothy Herbert (Timothy Burke) is a successful criminal attorney with all the trappings of success: a nice car, a big house and a beautiful, young wife (Irena Micijevic). On a gray, rainy day while driving through the rural countryside, he encounters a Man (Stephen Angus) and his Dog (Bibo) hitchhiking on the side of the road. Shortly after passing them by and nearly avoiding a head-on collision with an oncoming semi-truck, Tim’s car looses power and comes to a stop on the side of the road. While stranded there, the Man and the Dog come along and ask to take shelter from the rain. Tim reluctantly agrees but soon suspects that he’s let a lunatic in his car after the Man makes him an offer to change the outcome of his life. Part 2: PLAY OF WHITE After accepting the Man’s offer, Tim hitchhikes with the Dog to a small town where he finds work acting in a play at a local theater. He soon finds his new life fraught with measures of newfound freedom, self-introspection and loneliness. Struggling to make ends meet and to feed the Dog, Tim is lead to the charming Rose, who Tim helps carry out the last act of her life. Part 3: MORE LIKE BLACK Vera (Irena Micijevic) is the proprietor of a small French restaurant on Chicago’s toney North Shore. One late evening, just before closing, Vera meets Paul (Stephen Angus), a vagabond Jazz saxophone player who claims her husband, Tim, owes him money. After Vera explains that Tim died a year ago in a car accident, Paul leads Vera back in time where she must confront the mystery of her husband’s death. GRAY IN WHITE AND BLACK explores the space in between life and death, a space we occupy without any knowledge of what will be the consequences of the choices we make. In this film, our main character, Tim, discovers that his life is an ambiguous place where the difference between what is “real” and what is “make-believe” disappears.
