The platform draws filmmakers, producers, sales agents and financiers from across the industry each year, fostering opportunities for development financing, co-production and market exposure.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cFlapjax\u201d centers on Arrow, a fast-food manager whose overzealous devotion to the job unwittingly advances an alien race\u2019s scheme, as he unknowingly serves customers a deadly new item added to the menu: Flapjax.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tZevenbergen, whose debut feature \u201cI Need You Dead!\u201d first put him on the map, co-wrote the \u201cFlapjax\u201d screenplay with Estevan Mu\u00f1oz.
