A new film that tackles the subject of cyber-bullying is the thriller @urFRENZ. Directed by Jeff Phillips it is being released in LA on September 23rd. Check out some stills from the movie below, as well as the trailer. I'm sure we won't be going into Megan is Missing territory but it is a relevant subject matter and might well be worth a watch. More news as I get it.
Official Synopsis
When depressed and withdrawn Catharine meets a secretive boy online, she begins to come out of her shell. But is he a suitor or a stalker, a friend or foe? The mystery of his existence fuels obsession, denial and deceit, sending her to the point of no return. In the midst of cliques, boyfriends, and digital drama, Catharine is trying to make sense of a world of uncertain identities. The film was inspired by the writer-director's own experience parenting his teenage daughter in the world of cyberspace. "@urFRENZ" was made to serve as a talking point for the subject matter of bullying and cyberbullying, the number one hot button issue between parents and teens today.
