MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR
Hi, my name is Roger Mahler and welcome
to the press kit for my first cinematic film SENOA. Its a dark thriller and I hope you like it in spite of that. This movie is the
culmination of ideas that have been
fomenting in my head for over a
decade. Simply put, they wouldn't let me go.
Following the examples of people like Robert Rodriguez with his
first movie EL MARIACHI, and Edward Burns with his first
feature, BROTHERS MCMULLEN, I took it upon myself to be a
one-person crew. Half of my cast have been on other projects
using the same camera only to admit the same job was done, but
with more than 10 crew members running around just to do it.
Needless to say it was quite an undertaking that at times nearly
knocked the life out of me. While I had planned to film the
movie exactly following the path blazed out by Robert
Rodriguez's EL MARIACHI, unexpected circumstances took me onto a
different road that was more like Edward Burns’BROTHERS
MCMULLEN. At the end of the day, I am glad I had both examples
to refer to throughout the filmmaking process and ultimately, I
know it all worked out for the best.
