Heisting

2024 · 15 min

A goofy, brisk little caper that plays like a hangout among film-club misfits, more charming than clever.

Comedy
Tagline
It’s a heist, but stupid.
Overview
A film club hosts a 48 hour film fest every year and heist film enthusiast Amber is determined to win. When an unlikable member of the club is assigned to write this year's film prompts, Amber has an idea: a heist to get the prompts early. In order to get these prompts she needs help. Amber teams up with quiet club member Max. Amber's over hyper and judgmental personality with Max's quiet demeanor is a strange combination, but their goals align and this heist may solve everything for them.
