This idea has been sitting in suspension since November, 2013. The story was written within 5 days, but the pre-production work since then has taken some time to coordinate and we have at last finalised the crew. This is a simple and unique story but with an amazingly complex production side, which involves a car crash, a bashing and gunshots and it needs your support.
We are all local, independent artists, based in Melbourne, with an unparallelled drive for story telling. This is the first short film that I have written, directed and acted in and with the incredible crew behind me, I know it will be a great Australian short film.
This is why I need your support, I believe that the Australian film industry is really starting to make an impact around the world and it's only going to continue to grow with the support from the people who believe in it. This story is a great example of honest, funny and true Australian film making.
Please help continue our growing industry and especially the future of film making here at home.

Miscellaneous: $200
The Challenges
The main risks in this project will be to maintain and sustain the appropriate level of suspense which is needed for this film to succeed. Lighting in an outdoor setting, Melbourne weather and other variables will be a constant challenge.
We also have a car crash sequence which will be challenging on many levels for obvious reasons.
