Surgical Precision (2023)
Written, Directed and Edited by Adam Harvey
When his home is invaded, a doctor researching the medical uses of telekinesis must decide whether to use his gift to help or to harm his attackers.
A doctor, physically disabled by prolonged use of his telekinetic gift, finds his Hippocratic Oath challenged when his home is invaded by those seeking to exploit his ability. He doesn’t want to hurt anyone, but when push comes to shove his intruders will discover that he can target their internal body parts with…surgical precision.
"I love movies about telekinesis, but always felt that the power could be used for more than just exploding heads. With specialised anatomical knowledge and precise application, it could treat inoperable medical conditions, but also potentially do a lot of damage. And that ability would be sought after by people with nefarious intent."
"As my protagonist has been physically affected by his telekinesis, I knew I had to cast an actor with a disability. Ant Towler is an actor who relished the chance to throw himself around and dispel the preconception that actors with disabilities are fragile and difficult to accommodate on set."
Full film will be posted here after completing its festival run.
