Short film project
Project: Where is Russell?
Genre: Social Drama
Tag Line: Are you straight by choice?
Synopsis: Dan and Mike raise their son Russell to be nothing but gay. So is he really gay?
Aim: The Film is a student project for our degree in Digital Film (which we are completing in SAE London, 297 Kingsland Road E8 4DD London).
We wish the film to raise awareness about homophobia in a different light. To get people talking about the issue raised in the film and the idiocy of it.
As students we wish this project to push our careers forward, distributing through the internet and film festivals to create maximum awareness.
