Gazer opens in theaters on April 4th, courtesy of Metrograph Pictures. Shot on 16mm with a shoestring budget over the course of two years, the film is not only a masterful example of DIY filmmaking, but an inspiration to those who are looking to forge their own path to festival screenings and distribution. I recently caught up with Ryan J. Sloan and Ariella Mastroianni, and we discuss the making of Gazer below:
"Gazer follows a young mother (co-writer Ariella Mastroianni) who, due to a unique condition that progressively affects her perception of time, is trying to save money for her daughter’s future before it’s too late. She takes a risky job from a mysterious woman with a dark past, which leads her to become entangled in a tense web of revenge, deceit, and murder."
