Director Michael Perez-Lindsey & Writer Rhett Lindsey discuss their Phenomenal short film WILL I SEE YOU AGAIN?

Bond on Cinema

My guests today are Michael Perez-Lindsey and Rhett Lindsey about their new short film WILL I SEE YOU AGAIN.

Michael Perez-Lindsey's journey in the film industry began at the young age of 16 with an internship at Raleigh Studios Manhattan Beach (now MBS Studios), where he worked on productions such as THE OC and CSI: MIAMI. After earning his BA in Film and Electronic Arts at CSULB, Michael worked on PHANTOM starring Ed Harris.

He has since collaborated with top cinematographers as a DIT on productions like “HELLO, MY NAME IS DORIS,” A24’s “THE SKY IS EVERYWHERE,” and popular TV shows including Showtime’s “THE L WORD: GENERATION Q,” “WITH LOVE” on Amazon Prime to name a few.

Rhett Lindsey, known for his role as TJ in the 20th Century Fox film BIG MOMMA’S: LIKE FATHER LIKE SON, is the founder and CEO of Siimee, a social impact tech company dedicated to reducing bias in recruiting and hiring. His work has been highlighted in The Washington Post, CNBC, and CBS News This Morning. Passionate about storytelling, Rhett will be pursuing his Master's in Creative Writing and Literature at Harvard’s Extension School in the Fall of 2024.

Ladies and gentlemen, this powerful drama delves into themes of forgiveness, redemption, and the enduring impact of unresolved conflicts. It explores the complexities of male friendship and the courage required to face uncomfortable truths. As Max and Paul confront their past, they must also confront who they have become, and in doing so, they uncover the transformative power of honesty and reconciliation.

The brilliance of this film is in the story and in the dialogue. Award winning performances from each of the main characters. You will walk away remembering some of the lines in this film, and when you do, those words are going to penetrate your heart and your soul.

More importantly, when you see this film, you will be left changed for the better. You may have a hidden heaviness in your own life, and now you’ll see how forgiveness will care that heaviness away.

And that ladies and gentlemen, is what pure unadulterated cinema is all about. I can see this short film WILL I SEE YOU AGAIN as a major contender this award season.
