Mission Statement

This story, at its core is about the loss of a parent and how you can blame yourself for that loss. This project explores that concept and it's an important thing to talk about. We want to shed light on this now with everyone struggling with something we want to offer some hope and optimism.

The Story

Cole Webb is an average guy who happens to be able to shift his consciousness into his past self. He uses this ability to commit crimes and rob the rich, but something is wrong when an alternate version of himself shows up right before the biggest heist of his life.

Cole moves to Atlanta to be with his sister, Elli. There, they plan to infiltrate a facility called Zion that experimented on Cole when he was younger to get answers about his past, and find out what happened to his mother.

With his sister’s help, and financial backing from a mysterious businessman, they get a small team together to infiltrate the facility. The Heist goes horribly wrong when the team is double crossed, and Cole sends a version of himself back in time to try and fix what he wasn’t able to the first time. But will he be able to do it in time?

This film is going to be based around a retro aesthetic, set in a modern, sci-fi setting. Things that feel familiar, yet, somehow, take us out of the everyday. Use of dramatic contrasting lights, bright colors, and classic cinematography will invoke the feeling of nostalgia for a time many may not have even been alive for.

WHAT'S SO SPECIAL?

This story at its core is about the loss of a parent and how you can blame yourself for that loss. Often we put pressure on ourselves and blame ourselves for loss and we can let it affect how we respond to the world. This is a story about a character learning to forgive themselves for things outside of their control and really learning to accept forgiveness; that you don't have to feel guilty for not being what you believe others want from you.

This is especially poignant in my life because I recently lost a parent and it's something you're never prepared for. We can only do our best to not put blame on ourselves.

This film is a labor of love for all of us. We've been trying every day to make films better and better for our fans.

This film has a diverse cast of ethnicities and LGBTQ identities but it’s not a movie that’s just about these things. This film speaks to a modern audience who themselves are diverse and have unique perspectives on life that are too often the primary focus of a narrative, but too often we don’t get to see these perspectives in a more mainstream narrative, along with incredible, unique, real-life locations that bring the story to life.

We are currently in pre-production for this film.

Your contributions to the film will help us get underway in our production journey!
