Forsaken Freedom


The Aricanli family must fight to save themselves, their freedom, and their way of life when the secret police of the Second American Order come knocking. 

Forsaken Freedom is my screenwriting and directorial debut. I originated this film during a beginning screenwriting class, and - one year and twenty-two drafts later - undertook an eighteen-hour shoot on December 21st, 2014. The film premiered in September of 2015 and showcases an all-student cast and crew, to whom I owe my life and sanity.

Shot with a Sony A65.
