A Mannequin in Static
73 minutes Art Film / Drama
A drama on the disturbing realities of one boy's life.
Intended Audience: Mature
Haunted by the stigma of their complicated pasts, seventeen year old Alex and his mother Anne are starting new lives together. Hidden from the truth, Alex finds himself feeling disconnected from the physical world he lives in, and begins finding places to live inside his head through the stories he writes.
Life begins to take a pleasant turn when Alex finds himself falling for his new best friend, Ashley. But as Alex begins to discover the truth about himself and the lies that create the world around him, he finds that he is living alone in his own world. However, the world he has created in his head is soon discovered to be no safer than the world that drove him there.
I'm happy when I hear the ever popular statement, "I thought it was decent the first time I watched it, but after the second and third time, I really understood it! I LOVE it!" That's just the type of film I wanted to make.

Hasty's flick is said to be rather unique and compelling, so here's hoping this is just the start of a promising new career. -Arrow in the Head
