Hollywood in six minutes: chaos, algorithms, and three producers who hate each other.
After signing up for a literal elevator pitch, a screenwriter grapples with the conflicting advice from three very different producers.
Writing
Razor-sharp industry satire that actually knows the game.
Acting
David Hewlett's Bruce steals every second he's on screen.
Direction
Six minutes, zero fat, perfect comedic timing.
Director
Jason Speir
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The entire film was shot in a single day on a practical elevator set built in a Toronto warehouse.
Jason and Ben Speir are actual brothers who based the three producers on notes they've received—Bruce represents studio mandates, Jennifer reflects festival circuit pressures, and Artie embodies the 'elevated genre' trend.
