CGiii Comment

Considering this is a film about the collaborative process between director and writer...ironically, there seems to be absolutely no collaboration between the actual director and writer.

Technically, it's pretty good. Shame about the writing!

The(ir) Blurb...

Outside a street of bars and nighttime cityscape, a young filmmaking crew embarks on a low-budget short film production, fueled by stress-induced creativity and burgers, to dramatize the story of a couple's painful breakup. Tension mounts on set from the crew's own exes-turned-friends, Eric (the director) and Connor (the screenwriter), as they clash on the script's personal interpretation to them, throwing the project's completion into question.
