From the Smith Brothers and Director Tony Dean Smith comes VOLITION — a mind-bending science-fiction thriller, where the line between fate and free-will blurs.

On a rain-soaked night in 1991, two cars collide, leaving all drivers dead on the scene, including the mother of the lone survivor — a child — James Odin. It’s a tragedy. But what’s more tragic is that seven-year-old James foresaw the accident happening two months prior. He tried to prevent it, but who’s going to believe a kid who claims to see the future? Twenty-plus years later, James is a product of the failed foster care system. Knowing that the events of his future are predestined, he’s getting by, using his ability for petty crime and cheap thrills. But when a pre-sentient vision reveals to him his own imminent murder, James must go on the run. Together with a new friend, Angela, he must change the fate he knows is fixed.

VOLITION is directed by Tony Dean Smith, written and produced by Tony Dean Smith & Ryan W. Smith, and executive produced by Paly Productions Inc. in association with Smith Brothers Film Company.

THIS AIN’T NORMAL is a documentary feature film that transforms gang members from angry, threatening individuals to fragile youngsters endangered by their harsh surroundings (and often absentee fathers) and the allure of gang culture. Over the span of THIS AIN’T NORMAL, against defeating odds, a courageous team of streetwise mentors help these young men make the leap from doomed lifestyles to “recovery.”  THIS AIN’T NORMAL unveils a workable remedy to the crisis of gang membership in our major cities, a solution that can lower the rate of gun violence, incarceration, and family heartbreak and give imperiled youth the incentive to stay alive and thrive. 

Directed by Rudy G. Hypolite and written by Mr. Hypolite & Oriel Danielson, THIS AIN’T NORMAL was produced by Rudy G. Hypolite and Dennis G. Wilson.


“It means a great deal to our Kreateabuzz film team to partner with Freestyle Digital Media and distribute THIS AIN’T NORMAL to North American platforms and digital audiences,” said filmmaker Rudy Hypolite. “This visibility allows us to share the devastating backstories that drive our young people to join gangs and present a blueprint every major American city can use to help gang-involved youth transform their lives.”
