CLICHé
The
tables are turned in Cliché, our action-packed short film
about the botched robbery of a neighborhood convenience store.
From an empty hotel room where news of a holdup plays on the
television screen, the viewer is hurtled through the cable
line and lands right in the middle of the action as two masked
men erupt into a small convenience store, guns blasting. In
quick secession they assault the owners and clean out the
cash register. Unable to make a clean getaway, the two men
decide not to leave any witnesses, but the quick executions
that follow aren't what you'd expect. Using irony, stereotypes,
and clichés to communicate a sober message, Cliché is a fast-paced
stylistic action short film with numerous special effects
and exciting editing.
Shot
in a variety of formats including film, video, and HD, on
location in Conyers, Georgia, the film features local talent,
including
several members of the Conyers Police Department and Mr. and
Mrs. Parks, the real-life husband and wife owners of the convenience
store used in the short.
