Ghost Town Ventures of Los Angeles has purchased the movie rights to “Out of the Canyon,” an inspiring story of how two people managed to survive the tragic deaths of those closest to them and how they found the courage and strength to move on to build a new family together.
Ghost Town Ventures, founded by brothers Alex and Max Schenker, plans to turn Allison and Art Daily’s book into a feature film. Originally from San Antonio, the team will consist of Alex Schenker as writer/producer; Max Schenker, producer; Alexandra Ryan, writer; Louisa Oberman, producer. Allison and Art will oversee authenticity of the production.
In 1995, Art lost his wife and two young sons when a boulder dislodged from Glenwood Canyon and struck their car. Allison lost her brother to suicide. Art must decide whether to live on – and then what that life should be. Art doesn’t know hope – until he meets Allison. This is the story of their journey, which begins in hard places but becomes incredibly healing and filled with joy.
