Out of the Blue

A man plummets out of the sky into the Amazon Rainforest with nothing and no memory of what came before. Reliant on the family that found him, and a British novelist, the man’s search leads him to believe he might be involved with a polluting mining company. And if he was pushed out of a plane, is anyone looking to see if he’s still alive?

Writer Statement

Dedicating myself to a writing career after years as a producer, I am well practiced at beginning anew, so it's no surprise that common theme in my scripts is an examination of self.
