Back Page
Back Page is an idea I’ve been simmering on the back burner for ten years. Finally, during spring break ‘08, Ethan Norris, Angela Gant, and I spent nine days shooting. I spent ten months in post finding the film inside over one hundred hours of footage.
What is it about?
Four college film students embark on the riskiest journey of a lifetime to investigate local call-girl escort services for a documentary project. Bill, trying to put his life back on track after fleeing from his violent past, leads his group with bombastic flair. These leadership squabbles, and a dangerous proximity to their film’s subjects, leads to disaster in this salty, sultry laugh riot. It’s “The Blair Witch Project” with hookers. The role and responsibility of the documentarian are viciously skewered in this dark farce. BackPage is a monumental social statement, a modern morality tale, mockumentary cinema at its finest.
