Synopsis

After getting off work for the day, a man makes a stop by the restroom on his way out. He thinks that he’s the only one left in the building until he feels someone shove him in the back. To his surprise, there is no one there. He continues to feel something push him and quickly realizes he is being pursued by an evil force. A game of Tag begins.

ABOUT THE DIRECTOR â€‹â€‹

 

Anil first started making short films in high school. He knew from then on, that's what
he wanted to do with his life. From there he majored in Media Arts at the University of

He worked various jobs as an editor and camera operator. While freelancing, he formed a production company with his friends called Strawhouse Pictures. Within the production company they make a handful of shorts every year and take them on the road to film festivals. They continually crank out new projects and love to connect with audiences.
