Entire Film Via Desktop In ‘Open Windows’ Trailer

Some people argue that we spend more time in front of our computer screens than interacting in the real world. When those people argue such nonsense I simply click the big red ‘X’ in the top right hand corner. TIMECRIMES director, Nacho Vigalondo, has decided to turn this idea into a high concept thriller. If you thought found footage were pushing their luck, then how about an entire film that emulates a person’s desktop? It’s obviously a huge risk, but from this first trailer it may very well be that Vigalondo has pulled it off.

Elijah Wood stars as a fan who misses out on the chance to see his idol. He is soon contacted by a mysterious man who gives Wood access to hidden camera footage of his idol, Sasha Grey. What follows is a cat and mouse game compiled of different browser windows and webcam footage. It all looks very interesting, and as a fan of found footage it will certainly appeal to me. However, this is one style of film making I wouldn’t want to see copied too often.

OPEN WINDOWS is yet to receive a distributor. It stars Elijah Wood, Sasha Grey, and Neil Maskell.
