This film was shot on Super8 in 2000, as a project for a film class at the University of Texas. It was originally meant to be much more expansive, with a second section filmed from the kidnappers’ point of view, but the camera stopped working before we could shoot the final shot of the “kidnappee” section.
In 2009, I added sound effects and music, and recreated the final shot by reusing an earlier shot of the girlfriend to approximate what we had intended to film before the camera broke.
