Reimbursed


I had the idea for this about a year before I made it. Saw a Tweet from the QI Twitter account about an American man who was accidentally given several trillion dollars by PayPal. The idea sprung into my head that it might make a good little thriller if that money fell into the hands of an anarchist who wanted to dismantle the world's economy. After writing the first scene I more or less forgot about it until after I'd started my course, at which point I bashed out the remaining three scenes in about 45 minutes. Shot and edited on-and-off over about a month or two, and includes my first purchased prop (the copy of The Communist Manifesto), which made this my most expensive film to date with a budget of £3.70.
