| Synopsis: | Rumspringa, written and directed by Peter Zinn and featuring Jim Boerlin, C. S. Drury, Kirsty Meares, and Micky Sumner, is a dark comedy that explores the desire in all of us to experience life outside our 'normal' lives. Several generations face their own lives during a Rumspringa rave in an Indiana cornfield filled with rebellious Amish teenagers. Rumspringa is the coming-of-age experience for Amish teenagers when they are permitted a period of experimentation and freedom from religious rules, including going to bars, drinking, taking drugs, driving cars, and dating non-Amish people. The term rumspringa is a literal translation of the Pennsylvania German expression, "running around." - press release | |||||
