Bobby Cannonnolli is a parole officer. He is a Father. He is a Husband. He is a man struggling to find his place in life. At its heart "Nicky Newark" is the search for ones own self worth. Its the exploration of decisions that we all make in life that can keep us from finding our true value and what is important to us. Who does Bobby owe his loyalty to; His Wife, His Boss, His Daughter, His Passion, or Himself? Set the camera up and let the story unfold is the approach taken with this film; something not explored too often in modern day big budget cinema. Nicky Newark is a film done in the style of true independent films. Pulling heavily from the independent film hits of the 90's there are no huge budgets and no big names, only actors living and inhabiting the characters in order to tell the story and let it unfold.

"Lock-Load-Love" is a humorously tinged vignette styled film that focuses on the trials and tribulations of dating and trying to find love in our modern society. The film opens by showing Ralph (Nick DeMatteo) and Nina (Kate McGrath) in the all too familiar position of being the third wheel. They quickly begin to take action by signing up to the online dating website, matchdateharmony.com, and their separate "adventures" begin. Their dates range from comical to moving and everything in-between. What often appears one way on the surface is rarely what lies directly beneath it. Will Ralph find true love, will Nina? Is pushing to find love out of fear, despair, and peer-pressure the right way or is a less frenzied approach the better one? Ralph and Nina may discover the answers to those questions and learn some things about life along the way.
