The Enchanted is a comic love story about truth, illusion and the nature of love. A charming young woman in a provincial French town is obsessed by the supernatural. Most are tolerant of her, but the government inspector regards her as a threat to order and security. He summons all the authority and power of the state to rid her of her obsession. Then, she falls in love.
Director Gene Cole has assembled more than two dozen talented teens from many areas of the county to bring this comic tale to life. The ensemble, crew and design teams include teens from Fortuna, Ferndale, Loleta, Eureka and McKinleyville. The teens involved include: from Fortuna, Halsey Demant, Madonna Benson, Ashley Krueger, Rachel Fuentes, Laureen Tipple, Morgan Drake, and Mason Demant; from Ferndale, Cassie McBride, Jennifer Stannard, Megan Griffiths, Meredith Griffiths, and Rose Westfall; from Loleta, Andrea Boomer and Kegan Demant; from Eureka, Serrena Sanchez, Daniel Scott Marcus, Jason Paquette, Elysia Willis, Heather Davis, Cody Junger, Brandon Marcus, David Markman, and Brian Millet; and from McKinleyville, David Hamilton.
