Footprints (2011 film)

Footprints is a 2011 American independent film written by Steven Peros and marking his feature directorial debut. The film stars Sybil Temtchine, H.M. Wynant, and Pippa Scott.

Plot
A woman (Sybil Temtchine) wakes up at sunrise on the footprints and handprints of Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood with no idea who she is or how she got there. Upon awakening, she wonders if she isn’t, in fact, lost in a dream. Regardless of whether she is dreaming or wide awake, she sets off on her journey, from one person to the next, one famous locale after the other. Among the Hollywood fringe denizens with whom she comes into contact are a pair of tour guides, two superhero impersonators, a Scientology auditor, and a poster shop owner. She is also disquietingly followed by a Stranger who may be real or a figment of her unsteady imagination. Although her feet only fleetingly leave Hollywood Boulevard, by sundown Our Gal will piece together the revelatory truth about her existence and the reason for her awakening, forcing her to make choices that will literally result in either her life or death.
