Completed with less than $6000, with no editing cuts, a handful of friends gathered together for a weekend shoot along with two professional American actors that flew to France for one week on location, the first feature film by Alexandre Gay (19) called Sacrifice was made. Matthew Summers (Reginald P. Louis), a loving father and husband, is held captive by James Campbell (Theodore Bouloukos, Best Supporting Actor 2014 accolade in The New Yorker), the ruthless head of the all-powerful Campbell Corporation, who accuses him of the murder of his brother. In the name of his family, James will push Matthew beyond his limits, who will have to do what needs to be done for his own family to survive. How far will they go? ‘Sacrifice’ is also the perfect title for the story behind the screen. From the first steps of pre-production, to the final script re-write 5 days prior the shoot, to the 4 months of post-production handled by Alexandre on his computer, the numerous sleepless nights were (almost) forgotten after the final mixing with the amazing soundtrack delivered in a record time of the Hong Kong based composer Nicholas Bouloukos, this story is one for the books! I owe many thanks to the professional industry people (Theo, Reggie, Nicholas) who believed I could successfully complete this mad dream, to my friends who followed me in my universe and made it possible,to my parents who taught me how to work hard and finally, to my girlfriend who beared me during this exhausting task.
