Brothers Grant (Neil Brookshire) and Ancel (Aaron Toronto) Fox make a pact, no, "The Pact", swearing off females for a year in this short film directed by Penn State School of Theatre professor Matt Toronto. Written along with his brother, Aaron, who also stars in the film, and a little help from his wife Jordan, it was based off of a real pact that the Toronto brothers had made during their college days. Filmed in Brookings, South Dakota, "The Pact" has been shown at 13 festivals and is now being screened at the State Theatre.
