SHORT FILM SYNOPSIS:
A true collaboration. I was asked by Mr. Shining to take a look at some photos and video and make a film. Given my nature I began to invest my interests on to the images and created a homo-erotic murder mystery and an homage to the French New Wave’s SHOOT THE PIANO PLAYER directed by Truffaut.
