Check out Defiance on IMDB!
In the not too distant future, a dystopian society controls its citizens by implanting a chip into the frontal lobe of their brain. When two un-chipped orphaned twins receive a letter from their thought-to-be dead father, they must uncover the truth about the country on their quest to save him and the nation.
Defiance - The Full Short Film
Defiance, the full short film, is finally here! Thank you to everyone who has supported me as a filmmaker and this film in particular. I couldn't have done this without the amazing cast and crew. It's been 2 years since we started working on this film, and to finally see it finished is such a great feeling. Please enjoy.
