Role - Production Designer / Art Department Head / Art Producer / Set Decorator / Location Scout
Directed by Ashton T. Livingston
Rat Problem follows Liz, a working-class 20-something who struggles to make ends meet in Portland’s dilapidated city-scape of the 1980s. While she scurries into a shift from hell at the Maxi-Mart, Liz reluctantly subscribes to the harassment of her bogus manager, Daren, who ignores the blatant duties of his job and the obvious signs of vermin mischief afoot. While a local exterminator, Anton, flaunts his rodent carnage and warns of infestations on the tv, chaos exudes as Liz clocks on for more than she bargained for as she must fight for her life against the gnawing disputers of peace...
