Pride of Briarville
Short Film

From writer/director Todd Naylor comes this inspiring tale of Martin Palokovich, the son of the "unluckiest bastard ever born."

When his father's death lowers the population of Briarville below the state minimum, it puts the whole city in jeopardy.

Will Martin carry out his grandfather's plan to save Briarville and bring honor back to the family name? Or will he find the courage to do what he's wanted to do his whole life...leave?

Fun and heartwarming, The Pride of Briarville takes you on a journey of discovery about life and how to overcome it.
