‘Freelance’ Exclusive Trailer: A Video Editor’s Worst Nightmare
As someone who is intimately familiar with the freelance grind, it’s already a scary enough reality on its own. Constantly worrying about having enough work, chasing down invoices, trying to think of new ideas, it’s a nightmare. But in the new film Freelance, director John Balazs and writer Mike Gerbino make it an even more frightening reality when a video editor takes on a new job that’s more dangerous than she could have ever imagined.
Read the full synopsis below:
Katie, a freelance video editor in desperate need of work, receives a high-paying offer to edit a cryptic and bizarre video from an anonymous employer. Strapped for cash and facing eviction, Katie eagerly accepts the gig. The video depicts people being tortured and even killed on camera—surely just elaborately staged fiction. But when the first job leads to even more lucrative work, and more disturbingly realistic snuff films, Katie’s life begins to crumble. Strange figures in her apartment, horrific nightmares keeping her awake, and a mysterious illness plaguing her cat. It’s only when Katie decides to finally quit the job that she learns just how cruel her anonymous employer really is, and to what bloody lengths she herself will go to get out of her contract.
