Private Project

Tilting

A delusional man uses a treasure map to find hidden gold. But he has to fight off odd beasts to get it.

A classic tale with a modern twist. Don Quixote for the video game era. Don Quixote was set in the 1600s when the only sources of entertainment were books and witch-burnings. He went crazy after reading too many books about valiant knights defeating beasts in order to save princesses. If Don Quixote was alive today, he would pick up a video game controller instead.

Director Biography - David da Silva

David fails at everything he tries. It's embarrassing. Whether it's his writing, journalism, wine bar, or comedy it all ends terribly. And now he thinks he can make a film?! Good lord. I give up. But I still love him.
Regards,
David's mom.
