The Interrogation of Hugo Schreiber 2025

Directed by Ethan Jones

My friend and I were home from college for a few weeks and were inspired to make a film together. It had to be affordable on a college budget and logistically simple to film. Thus, we created this ten minute scene of two characters talking in a single room as an exercise in crafting interesting dialogue, cinematography, characters, world-building, and suspense within these restrictions. This was purely an inspired project, not for any class. We wanted to see what we were made of and what we could put together with limited resources and time. We’re incredibly proud of the results and in our evolution as filmmakers from this experience. The film takes place in a larger world, and if people are interested, we’d love to continue creating new stories within this world.
