One With The Lightning 2025

A 15 minute comedy coming to the film festival circuit in 2025 starring Katie Folger and Brian Villalobos shot on location in Austin, Texas.

Statement from Writer/Director Sean Fallon

One with the Lightning is a comedy about abortion. But it is not about the emotional experience of having an abortion. Instead, it is about the ridiculousness of the abortion debate and more specifically, how ridiculous it is that a debate even exists. Because nothing is wrong with abortion. It is a fact of life that has been weaponized. Too often films tackle this subject in a dour and depressing manner. And that is totally understandable. Abortion can be a difficult and emotionally grueling experience. But by always being presented in the most depressing terms, it reinforces a subconscious belief that abortion is inherently wrong. That’s why I’m presenting this topic in an entertaining, funny, bright, clear, energetic and concise manner. To diffuse the topic of abortion. To take the charge out and show it for what it is – a fact of life.
