OO1     a feature narrative film

 
 

Casey Finn, a world class cardio-thoracic surgeon arrives as the head of the Doctors Without Borders team in earthquake ravaged rural China, closely guarding a heart-wrenching secret.  But when she runs into Alejandro Aguila, an old lab partner and an old flame whom she deserted 13 years ago, their still unresolved relationship along with her curious, growing attachment to his precocious ten-year-old daughter convince her that Alejandro is concealing an even greater life altering secret from their past.


Against the backdrop of a Red Cross Camp, the now familiar international symbol of our collective selves at their best, comes a story about how, more than scientific advancement, it is generosity of spirit and love that sustains our species. OO1 explores the dynamic and amorphous textures of love through the eyes of people who prize logic and reason for their livelihood.  Perhaps, in matters of love and loss, even the smartest ones may have a rocky journey in understanding the mysteries of their own heart.   And maybe that only in illness and in death, we best appreciate the vigor of life and the true depths of our human bonds.


OO1 fuses a fast-paced and often humorous suspense drama with a meditative exploration of love and loss. This project is original and bold, designed to entertain and to provoke the global audience through a whirlwind of timely scientific headlines and contemporary moral ambiguities. In an era of escalating destruction and climate threats, this renewed examination of our basic human fabric must take on a new urgency.
