About the Film
THE REDRUM INTERROGATION
A Psychological Science Fiction Short Film
The Synopsis
"The Interrogation of a Suspect" takes us through an encounter between a murder suspect and three detectives. It is a psychological battle for supremacy as the story of the alleged murder is revealed.
There is an undertone of a secret life of the Veteran as he tries to prevent his colleague, the impatient Firebrand, from derailing the whole session.
As the suspect batters and bruises the two detectives with stories and anecdotes, the session is interrupted by the Lieutenant who comes in with a new angle that throws a spanner in the works. Her rather sudden, unforced exit restores the battle. The psychological wrestle escalates to its brutal conclusion.
