Sprecher wrote the screenplay with sister Karen Sprecher and will direct the story of a desperate salesman in the Midwest whose scheme to get hold of a rare violin leads to unforeseen consequences.

The Convincer will be the fourth production from Werc Werk Works after the Solondz film, Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman’s Howl starring James Franco and Bela Tarr’s latest The Turin Horse.
