ABOUT CLANCY
Clancy Miller is an abused 12 year old who runs away to keep
from getting taken away by social workers. Out on the streets, she meets
up with Nick, an ill-tempered, homeless vet.
A corrupt mayor, desperately seeking re-election, offers Nick a reward to
keep the missing girl out of site for a few days; the mayor’s secret plan -
to ‘find her’ in grand fashion in an attempt to gain favor with the voters.
A scuffle with a loan shark sends Clancy and Nick on the lam to the
nearby countryside. There an unlikely friendship blossoms, as the downand-
out man slowly begins to see the world through the eyes of the
optimistic girl.
Back in the city, the mayor’s plan escalates, as the prospect of a manhunt
across county lines fuels a military scale ‘rescue mission’ that will play
out as the TV cameras roll - ensuring his persona as the little girl’s
savior, and in the process, his eminent re-election.
