Welcome to Hammertown

It’s just another week in a small American town: Chaotic mass firings by unelected troubleshooters; the reckless shuttering of vital city services; open corruption; harsh extralegal sanctions against political enemies. All of it overseen by a dimwitted nepo baby with a bad combover and a thirst for revenge.

HAMMERTOWN is a new project from Bill Barol, the co-producer of IMAGINATION & JUNK and producer of HOME: STORIES FROM L.A.

HAMMERTOWN is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual persons, places or events is a wild coincidence.
