Four years ago, I
assembled a group of friends and we made a film. We didn’t set out to blow our
minds or create something of undeniable genius or change the world; we set out
to make a film, have fun, and feel as though we’d created something special and
wonderful out of a bunch of words on a page. That was our goal, our sole
reason.
In a nutshell, the
film – brain freeze – is about Leonard, a struggling author, and his attempts to end the writers’ block
that has been plaguing him for the past eon. Onceuponatime, he was a successful
author, but he hasn’t written anything for months. Desperate and at his wit’s
end, he decides to go into his mind to see what old ideas he can use. But as he
soon finds out, his characters have other ideas.
