"Silent Birth" | a paper island film | a 48 hour film project

“When a queer activist meets a closeted sci-fi star the results are out of this world!” For the 48 Hour Film Project at 7pm on Friday, June 3rd we picked a genre out of a hat, were given instructions to include a particular character, prop and line of dialogue in an original short screenplay. We wrote, produced and edited our short - and printed it by 7:11pm on Sunday, June 5th. This is the result. Genre: Sci-Fi Character: Sam Dunglestreet, a debt collector Dialogue: "I've never seen that before." Prop: Headphones Created for the 48 Hour Film Project in New York City, 2016.
