To keep things fair, I am literally flipping coins over the next few days to put these projects in order. First up, we have one of the worlds longest post productions in the history of post productions... UNSPEAKABLE, my heavy-handed directorial debut (sort of - if we dont count my thesis film SLEEP OVER), was shot in the fall of 2012 and languished (by my own hand) in editorial purgatory until now. Written and shot in a 48 hour period while touring Indiana with KINYARWANDA, it was at the encouragement of dear friends David Yosha and Dorothy Henckel (MY producers on the film!) that I take my only free weekend on the tour and shoot something on the fly. I came up with this little number about a mystical young African woman who crosses paths with some unseemly good ol boys - and their interest in harassing her becomes their undoing... Starring KINYARWANDAs Hadidja Zaninka and a great cast of Indianapolis locals - Eddie Curry, Woody Rau and Bevery Roche - I was welcomed onto the local film scene with a shoestring budget and nurtured by a crew of tremendously talented people (including good buddies Darren Jurmé Allumier and Andrew Henckel) who came together for the sole purpose of making my first solo effort a reality. Where it will land, nobody knows, but the hope is that we have an early to mid-2015 premiere. In the meantime, I would love for some of my friends there in Indianapolis to post a couple of behind the scenes photos or screen grabs to show UNSPEAKABLE off a bit. And if you want to see the film that brought this mini-project together, please remember that KINYARWANDA is always streaming on SnagFilms website for free (link below). Ill share another new film in the morning! snagfilms/films/title/kinyarwanda
