Screenwriter in need of financial assistance.
An independent producer/ company is nibbling.
I am Andrew Cahill-Lloyd, an Australian resident. I am a screenwriter whose work has yet to be produced for the screen.
I strive to create art that both makes a statement and stimulates conversation. I address sensitive topics with a frank and thorough approach. The thematic explorations will encompass childhood sexual abuse, sexual addiction, mental illness, and religious entitlement. To cite a few examples.
To engage talent for my project, “Ischaemic,” I require financial resources to cover casting expenses. The film falls into the category of a thriller.
Joshua Miller, a married truck driver, calls the NSW Central Coast his home. He feels oppressed by his own sense of inadequacy, which causes him to underachieve. He indulges in his interest in gay kink by regularly attending a sex club/sauna in Brisbane. Whenever he’s in the club, he loves the sensation of being pushed to his limits by the skilled dungeon master. His pleasure comes from pain, and he craves it above all else. Occasionally, he catches the scent of a teenage boy, and what starts as a quiet, sensual affair always ends in a brutal murder by strangulation. When he strangles an undercover police officer the pressure builds.
The existence of an unknown twin brother becomes an all-consuming distraction for him. He can’t help but feel envious of his twin’s charmed life, which only emphasizes his own failures. His brother donates a kidney, and it has the opposite effect. He attempts to frame his brother as he continues to increase the body count. As his yearning for his brother’s charmed life escalates, it drives him to either possess or destroy his brother. Even rape and incest become a tool in his twisted mind and the tension builds to a crescendo as their relationship crumbles.
