Valencia, CA - In a compelling blend of intense drama and thought-provoking storytelling, "Patient" takes audiences on a gripping journey through the harrowing aftermath of a mass shooting, all within the walls of a well-prepared emergency room. The cinematic docu-follow presentation, employing both documentary-style footage and point-of-view (P.O.V.) camera angles, provides an emotional perspective from every character, from doctors and nurses to the enigmatic "victim" at the center of the crisis. The secrecy surrounding the patient's identity builds to a startling and poignant cinematic reveal that will leave viewers questioning the true nature of the "life" being saved.
Directed by Brandon Mathis, "Patient" tackles a pressing issue that has plagued America for far too long. With gun-related deaths reaching alarming levels, including 690 mass shootings and 705 fatalities in 2021, the urgency to address this crisis cannot be overstated. Notably, gun deaths among children and teens have spiked by 50% in just two years, with over 25,198 lives lost due to gun violence as of August 1, 2023. The film aims to shed light on the powerful lobbying efforts perpetuating this violence, offering a glimpse into the world of those fighting to keep firearms on the streets.
Goals and Fundraising Campaign
To ensure the timely completion of "Patient" and its widespread reach, we are seeking support to cover essential expenses, including set locations, props, wardrobe, actors and crew, equipment rentals, production supplies, meals for the team, editors, music licensing, permits, and production insurance. Additionally, we plan to purchase advertising space to broadcast the commercial once it is finished.
The Visionaries Behind the Film
"Patient" is the brainchild of a collective group of filmmakers deeply committed to raising awareness about the scourge of gun violence. Brandon Mathis, the producer and director, brings a personal connection to the project, driven by his own experiences with gun violence. By shifting the focus from the aftermath of tragedy to the powerful interests perpetuating this crisis, "Patient" aims to amplify the voices of those working tirelessly to stop it.
A Call for Action
"Patient" aspires to put an end to senseless violence in schools, public spaces, homes, businesses, and beyond. The film seeks to inspire lawmakers to unite and take decisive action against this ongoing tragedy, ultimately saving lives across America.
