The Witch Hunter & the Cripple

by a WeOwnTV Collaboration

This short film was created during a storyboarding exercise and is one of the first collaborative group projects completed. It was shot entirely on the Flip video camera. Alluspa King Jr., who plays the cripple in the film, suffered from polio as a child. He shares stories of being accused of causing bad luck and being a witch when he was younger. This theme is revisited in a later film produced by the team titled Charity.
