Spinning Man
What you believe, what you know, is all how you spin it.
Directed by Simon Kaijser
Produced by Chimney Poland, Irish Dreamtime
A cerebral psychological thriller built on suspicion, perception, and the unreliability of truth, where a respected professor becomes entangled in a missing-person investigation that questions what we can actually know.
Evan Birch is a family man and esteemed professor at a distinguished university. When a female student goes missing, police Detective Malloy has reason to be suspicious when crucial evidence makes Evan the prime suspect in her disappearance.
