The Chef, The Spy & The Mob
Marlene Vex is a famous chef now working as a food critic. After turning 50, the insecurities of being middle-aged and her former glory creep up on her, and she begins to feel unseen.
She decides to use her newfound food critic career to find the excitement she has been missing.
In a stunning disguise, Marlene goes to the hottest new French restaurant and is approached by a federal agent. The Agent invites her to dinner, and she accepts, thinking he is just a fan.
Once at the table, Marlene comes face to face with a Chicago mob boss and their bodyguard, she realizes that she’ll have to embrace her confident side if she’s going to make it out alive.

This project is very close to my heart. It was great working with so many growing artists. We wore many hats and leaned on the fly. It’s amazing what you can do with a little determination.
