$5 Margaritas

Written and Directed by Abigail Lestrade

When new hire, Claire, is thrown into her first shift at a new job, she is forced to rely on her coworkers as she discovers that food service really is life or death.

Meet Sally,

As general manager of The Wok and Roll Society, she navigates her night shifts with an abundance of smoke breaks. Discover the quirks of the resident key holder as she interviews potential server candidates.

As promotional content for my short film, $5 Margaritas, I wrote and filmed the original interviews of some of the characters that are featured in the film.

Britt. Not Brittany

Next on the interview slate, we meet Britt. She is se most confident sarcastic, snobby, and the most confident woman you will ever meet.

Next up is Julia,

She is a lot sweeter than she looks, and if she likes you, she might just make you some custom jewelry.

And Claire Simone Williams,

aka claireloveshergma@gmail.com

She’s her grandma’s baby, and has never had a job before (can you believe it?!) The film, $5 Margaritas, focuses on her right after she is hired for her first night on the job. Not knowing what to expect, she leans on Julia and Britt to make it through her first shift.
