Reilly Schrock was born and raised in and around Akron, Ohio. He is currently a student studying English and Digital Media Production at Kent State University. "Idle Hands" is Schrock's debut narrative short film.
With "Idle Hands", we wanted to make a film that was about violence but didn't glorify violence. We wanted to showcase where social systems commonly fall short for those in need. Through this short and suspenseful thriller, we hope to raise concerns about how everyday violence impacts each of us -- including the ways in which we choose to react.
