Lifted

Hop Top Original / series pilot

Margo (Emily Pattison) and Jodie (Amanda Rodriguez) are out camping with their mother and father in the peaceful forests of Maine. After marshmallows over the fire and a chilling ghost story, Alan (Nathaniel Scott) tucks his daughters into bed for the last time in his entire life. Jodie, the matriarch of the two sisters who are left to fend for themselves after an apparent catastrophic event, must see past her superficial attitude and open up to her sister Margo.

“Lifted” was written by Hop Top OGs Brianna Shockley, Christopher Rennie, and Evan Shneider. This HTF Original series pilot was a catalyst for many Hop Top Films projects down the line and still feels like the heart of the company. Many connections were made shooting this one and we are excited to see how it performs on the festival circuits.
