In a wild chase through the wastelands of furthest Brooklyn, a band of high-octane marauders battle over ownership of the world’s only known fuel cell.

CIRCLES OF CONFUSION

DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT

“This film was all about speed and the release of that speed through collision.  That’s what we were aiming at.  We wanted to create fifteen minutes of high-speed kinetic action without all the middling drama that fills out a standard action/adventure feature film.  Circles of Confusion is an action/adventure feature film in fifteen minutes.  We planned scrupulously, hit on all cylinders and came away with a wild, blazingly fast series of sequences for pennies on the Hollywood dollar (and with not so much as a scratch or a law suit).”

 

Originally titled Arena, Circles of Confusion was a featured short subject on PBS’s First Exposure (WNYC-TV) and the film played to packed houses at the Singapore International Film Festival, the Cinema Jove Fest, Spain, and at the Central Florida Film Festival, where it won Best of Show.
