GENESIS

The Edge isn't just a movie. It's a scream in the dark. A love letter to every dirt-covered, blood-soaked, low-budget genre film that made you feel something real.

This story's been festering since 2014, when a short film idea called Rhesus first clawed its way into my head. A bloodborne virus. A collapsed world. The end of everything except the fight. But it needed time to mutate.

Then came 2020. Real-life pandemic. Real-life collapse. This wasn't a trend to chase. It was something deeper.

By 2024, the story matured.The Edge spilled out. Fast. Raw. Ready.

It's built to thrive in the dirt—made for low-budget production, high-emotion impact. Inspired by the scrappy legends of indie cinema who turned constraints into power.

A WORD FROM THE DIRECTOR

Filmmaker. Editor. Story addict.
Twenty years in the trenches—over 300 shoots, from corporate gigs, big budget commercials to guerrilla runs-and-guns. I've been on every side of the camera, learned every trick, made every mistake. Those jobs paid the bills, but they starved the dreams. Two decades spent serving other people's visions while my own creative fire slowly suffocated, there are only so many times you can cut to a stock drone shot before something inside starts clawing at the walls.
I burned out, bled dry, and nearly bottomed out.
The Edge crawled out of the wreckage, written in stolen hours between deadlines and disillusionment.

But The Edge is different. This isn't just another gig.
The Edge is the true expression of my voice and aspirations—a love letter to genre cinema and to my desire for creative freedom. A leap toward producing films I am truly passionate about—films driven by iconic imagery, choreographed camera movements, and compelling atmospheres.
It's a blade I've been sharpening since my teens, crafted for low-budget production, built to turn constraints into weapons. Everything I've learned, felt, and refused to forget—poured into something that demands to be felt. Even my master's thesis called "Alternative Ways to Movie Production"—prepared me for this fight.
I stopped waiting for someone else to greenlight the kind of films I wanted to make. Stopped waiting for the industry to understand that genre cinema isn't disposable entertainment—it's the beating heart of film that still draws blood.

This isn't about getting noticed. This is about saying something loud. Something dirty. Something true.
The Edge is about survival. Not in the world. In the soul.
This is the film I need to make. And I won't wait any longer.
