” is a comedy feature based on something filmmaker Noel David Taylor knows about trying to make an independent film.
The film, which is now screening at the virtual Slamdance Film Festival, is inspired by the act of “artistic fumbling for discovery,” which is pretty common in the independent film world, according to Taylor.
The story follows a filmmaker, played by Taylor, who is on a quest to find funding and the means to make an independent film, only to be pulled into other people’s projects and ego trips.
“I’ve been bouncing around for years in that world, and largely getting nowhere and being frustrated,” he said. “I was collecting ideas, and had dozens of notes of random quotes that felt more funny than depressing. But I didn’t know what I would do with them.”
