Finding Time With The Talent Behind ‘Missing’

Modern technology is both a very good, and a very scary thing….

On this episode we dive into the ethos of the modern age as we see how our devices can on one end be our downfall but on the other end actually save our lives.  It’s time for ‘Missing’.

When her mother (Nia Long) disappears while on vacation in Colombia with her new boyfriend, June’s (Storm Reid) search for answers is hindered by international red tape. Stuck thousands of miles away in Los Angeles, June creatively uses all the latest technology at her fingertips to try and find her before it’s too late. But as she digs deeper, her digital sleuthing raises more questions than answers…and when June unravels secrets about her mom, she discovers that she never really knew her at all.

It’s a hell of a thriller with a fantastic performance from young Storm Reid that will keep you on the edge of your seats from minute one.  It’s in theatres now but in advance of the release we had the unique pleasure of sitting down with the writers and directors of the film Nicholas D Johnson and Will Merrick about the challenges of making it, how it evolved out of ‘Searching’ which came before it and so very much more….

‘Missing’ is in theatres now.
