The White Van

Hollingsworth, once a thriving town, is now split by the railroad tracks. On one side, wealth and opportunity seem to flow freely. On the other side, in the shadow of the tracks, lies the Downside. Ravaged by the recession, the Downside is a place of neglect and despair.



Teenagers are starting to vanish. A white van, its purpose sinister, is seen lurking around the edges of town. As the disappearances mount, whispers turn to fear. The privileged youth of Hollingsworth seem oblivious, but a spark of defiance ignites in a group of kids. They are determined to find their friends and expose the truth, even if it means venturing into the rough side of town where secrets are tightly guarded.



Can a group of teenagers bridge the economic divide and unveil the truth behind the disappearances? Or will Hollingsworth’s dark secret tear the town further apart?
