Director Statement

Tanner Park is a short, surreal sci-fi thriller that primarily explores themes of regret and suppressed guilt but also touches on wider prejudice that exists within our society. The cinematography by Graham Forbes, sound design by Polly Petrova and the tortured performance by new talent Ricky Boa have combined in this film to create a dark, immersive narrative that holds you to the end and, hopefully, leaves you with something we should all reflect on.
