When the high school’s gossip girl exposes a secret society called The Sisterhood of Night, the quiet town of Fairview is thrown into the public eye and blogosphere. What follows is a chronicle of three girls’ unique and provocative alternative to the complexities of the digital abyss.
Based on Pulitzer Prize-winning Steven Millhauser’s short story of the same name, Sisterhood is a modern version of the Salem Witch Trials set in the digital abyss of a New Jersey high school.
In 2007, Waechter and Fu were chosen to participate in Tribeca All Access where the project received the Creative Promise Award for Best Screenplay.
It is produced by Lydia Dean Pilcher of Cine Mosaic (HBO’s “You Don’t Know Jack,” The Darjeeling Limited, The Namesake) and Evenstar Films (Meek’s Cutoff, Jesus’ Son). Oscar-nominated Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine, Zombieland) and Chloë Moretz (Hugo, Kick-Ass, 500 Days of Summer) are attached. It is slated to begin production in Spring 2012.
