THE REPLACEMENT
RT: 15 mins
On election night 2036, a janitor just watched his own clone become President. He feels cheated out of a life he might have lived and goes on a bender to seek justice. But having the same face as the most powerful man on the planet has its consequences...
The Replacement is a film about how the best of intentions can get us into places we didn't expect, and how some visions of progress can lead to the abandonment of many. The Replacement reflects this danger with a fanciful world of advanced clones that can out-perform their originals at everything. With their humanity making them the stars of a new social movement, the world quickly accepts all the progress they offer and elevates them to the top of society, with less and less for natural born humans.

A Columbia College Chicago graduate, he has produced and Assistant Directed over 40 short films, commercials, and music videos, working on brands such as Volkswagen, Budweiser, and Air National Guard.
