Dear Zachary: A Letter To a Son About His Father
Kurt Kuenne 2008
Categories: Documentary Feature, Showcase Screening
2 pictures Pictures
Run time: 93 min. | color
On the evening of Nov. 5, 2001, Dr. Andrew Bagby, 28, was murdered in a parking lot in western Pennsylvania. The prime suspect, his ex-girlfriend Dr. Shirley Turner, promptly fled the United States for St. John's, Newfoundland -- where she announced that she was pregnant with Andrew's child. She named the little boy Zachary.

Filmmaker Kurt Kuenne, Andrew's childhood friend, originally began this film as a way for little Zachary to learn about his father. But when Shirley Turner was allowed to walk free on bail in Canada and given custody of Zachary while awaiting extradition to the United States, the film's focus shifted to Zachary's grandparents, David & Kathleen Bagby, and their desperate efforts to win custody of the boy. Director's Bio:
Kurt Kuenne is an award-winning filmmaker and composer of both fiction and documentary films. He is a winner of the Nicholl Fellowship in Screenwriting from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences for his screenplay "Mason Mule", which he is slated to direct soon, and was named one of the top 25 new faces of indie film by Filmmaker Magazine following the completion of his first feature. His work includes the teen drama SCRAPBOOK starring Eric Balfour, the PBS Documentary DRIVE-IN MOVIE MEMORIES and a series of popular award-winning short films.
