Making The Film
"In traveling to North Carolina and meeting the outlandish characters we'd seen hollering on CNN, we soon realized how much more lay beneath the surface of this 15-minutes-of-fame occurrence. After befriending these characters, we quickly discovered them to be very real people with hopes, dreams and hurts. We've joked that Finders Keepers needs to be a series to truly get to the bottom of this labyrinthine tale of tragedies, good fortunes and generations-deep grievances."
