I'M    NOT    SORRY
official selection SXSW Film Festival

Official Trailer - Short Film, Written & Directed by Russell Costanzo - Starring Clyde Baldo & Christina Calph -
Director of Photography Rob Woolsey

SYNOPSIS:  A lonely and disturbed man wants nothing more than to fit in and find a partner but his self-loathing and violent tendencies prevent that from becoming a reality. 
"I'm Not Sorry" is a surreal tale - sometimes sad, sometimes funny, but always unsettling -  about the power of self-image and societal judgements. And one that presents a
different view on two classic philosophies:
"I'd never want to join a group that would have someone like me as a member."
and
"You can't blame a dog for being a dog."
