Crash. After having his car mysteriously wrecked, a man goes in search of the culprit.

Why do you feel this publication is important?

I feel that this publication is once again a sign of my talents as a writer. It shows how despite how much I may doubt myself and my abilities, I can still write scripts that tell great stories, compete with other talented individuals, and are received positively by others. All in all, it’s a sign that what I’m doing is working and bringing one step closer to fulfilling the dream.

What are the inspirations behind your screenplay?

The idea behind this screenplay came from something that happened to me a few months back. Someone had managed to tear off my car’s bumper in a parking lot and didn’t leave a note. And the police couldn’t do much since there were no cameras or witnesses around. So, I was left upset and thinking of ways to find the person responsible for hitting my car. It didn’t work, but I thought “Hey, I can at least make a good script of this.” So, I wanted to write this script with the idea of someone going through a similar experience to me but taking it to the most extreme levels possible. And I thought writing it as a revenge story would be a fun and interesting way for me to go with it (along with letting out a few frustrations as well).
