A retired killer, now working in a tea shop, is confronted by his replacement. It becomes a contest to see who will come out alive.
My name is William Kuo, and I'm a film student, originally from Taiwan. I spent my childhood and school years watching films, especially the action genre. From the time I got a camera in my hands, I started making films.
After working as an ESPN Cameraman, I started shaping his own philosophy on how action films should be shot. I was heavily influenced by directors Michael Bay, Christopher Nolan, and John Woo.
My unique style and ability to tell a story will leave an audience on the edge of their seat. There are action directors, and then there’s me! Action films should take the audience on a ride, so that when the film is over, they feel like they've been on a roller coaster, and the roller coaster exploded.
THE STORY - HALF AND HALF
Lee, a retired killer walks into a Taiwanese tea shop to restart his life. He's a quick learner with expert speed that only slightly betrays his deadly edge.
After a year, he's become the most popular bartender in the area. As someone tries to snap a picture of him, he stops them. We know this is a man with something to hide.
Then his replacement killer shows up. He tells Lee that he has come to silence him and prevent him from exposing secrets. The Killer offers Lee a deal... make a drink before he assembles his gun, and Lee will be a free man.
It becomes a contest of speed and skill as the two men race to find out their fates...
Please check out all the rewards I'm offering on the side of the page. I promise to deliver the action to all you action fans out there!
