A shitty and lonely writer finally gets published after writing a novel in one night. His secret? A mosquito haunting his room and keeping him awake... One morning, he realizes with horror that his mosquito is gone.</p>

A mix of Barton Fink and Bug, with a dash of Delicatessen, we want to create a dark and oppressing atmosphere that reflects the mental evolution of our writer.

We are very lucky to have a crew willing to work on the film for free, as well as to have access to camera and lighting equipment. However, it takes a lot more to make a film ! Our budget will be spent as follow : </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
- <strong>Shooting location and set design</strong> : we want to recreate our writer's apartment in studio in order to have full control over the mise-en-scène!</p>
<p>
- <strong>Costume and props</strong> : every detail counts and we want our set and characters to be as realistic as possible!</p>
<p>
- <strong>Make-up</strong>: special effects make-up will be necessary to make our writer physically deteriorate!</p>
<p>
- <strong>Additional gear </strong>: renting lenses and grip equipment will allow us to improve our mise-en-scène!</p>
<p>
- <strong>Transportation and catering</strong> : we need to rent a truck for our equipment, but most importantly, we need to feed an entire crew for 4 days!</p>
