Update: This is not actually a promo, it's a short film by Renny McCauley. Apparently IMDb mixed up his entry with the entry for Sydney Walsh's film. The short film is still sweet.
I'm actually not sure if this a promo, a short, or the start of the planned 90 minute film, but I can say I love the style and the way it's shot. It's about a red haired boy who escapes from school (which kind of looks like juvie) and.. well, the keywords are "stockholm syndrome", "crime" and "romance", so where this is going, I don't know, but I'm digging it! The film is written and directed by both Renny McCauley and Sydney Walsh.
Charlie is having a bad day at school. His bread is moldy and he's forgotten to study for his history test. But the oversight of a lazy janitor changes the course of Charlie's day.
