WORLD PREMIERE
Be the first in the world to see New Zealand filmmaker Tim Hamilton’s meta love-letter to independent filmmaking, and the emotional impact of losing a best friend.
A truly unique story and vision from one of the most talented upcoming filmmakers we have in Aotearoa.
This wasn’t supposed to be a true story, but it became one. American actor Gene came to Aotearoa to be in a movie. His role? A wannabe influencer on a quest to restart the internet. Simple concept. Easy to execute. Yeah, nah. The no-budget indie flick quickly spirals out of control when his Kiwi director’s unprocessed grief wreaks havoc on the production. Tensions boil over. The cast refuses to stay in character. The fourth wall is smashed to pieces.
