THE ARCHIVIST

Athens GA, November 12, 2019
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Genre-bending 35mm Techniscope Sci-Fi Feature
"The Archivist" Nears Completion

Last Highway Films LLC has entered the final stages of post-production work on its exciting debut motion picture, The Archivist – a one-of-a-kind, all-original science fiction/spaghetti western/horror/apocalyptic road epic shot in glorious Techniscope on 35mm in Nevada and Georgia.

The Archivist depicts a bizarre near-future totalitarian society where "the past is forbidden, and memories are treason" – and bloodthirsty government agents called "archivists" scour a fallen America for illegal artifacts of civilization and punish those who harbor them. But Agent Calder Benson, the most brutal archivist of them all, soon finds the artifacts he is ordered to destroy have a powerful lure on him – and hold the key to forbidden memories he was forced to forget. To find the disturbing truth of his true identity, Agent Benson steals a 1970s muscle car and escapes to the high deserts and strange swamp roads of a post-apocalyptic America crawling with glue-sniffing crazies who attack airplanes with chainsaws, an evil overlord who rules the remnants of civilization, and a motorcycle-riding masked Sheriff who is not what he appears to be!

The Archivist is a strikingly authentic homage to the wild, colorful drive-in and midnight movies of the 1960s and 1970s. Shot on restored Techniscope Arriflex cameras and cinema lenses, director Eric Hand, who also stars as Agent Benson, has resurrected classic cinematography and captured it on Kodak film stock.

I was wondering how if memories are treason someone would be able to carry out their job, or be able to function on any level?

True: I was wondering if the OP meant 'genre' bending or "gender" bending?  :tongueout:

Also, I thought this thread was about my job: very bummed that it isn't. :wink:

YO REV! delete is in order, yes?  :thumbup:

No, it's a press release that was posted in the press release section and the poster isn't deceiving anyone. If it was posted in any other section of the forum it would be spam, but this is actually what this section was designed for.
