Tim Everett is a United States Army combat veteran and Atlanta-based indie filmmaker. He got his start in indie film because of a paintball game. He has directed several award-winning Short films and hopes to turn them into feature-length productions.
The Cost of Living is a film about veterans of Operation Enduring Freedom, the war in Afghanistan. Our film is 100% authentic to the experiences of veterans: our film was created by veterans, for veterans, about veterans. This film is dedicated to my brothers MSG Rob Carter, GySgt Joshua Bordonaro, SFC Alwyn Cashe, and SPC Jameson Lindskog.
