Synopsis

What if nothing is as it seems?

Somewhere deep inside the Santa Fe desert there has been a number of blood-curdling murders... a real killing spree. It's been a hell of a day on the highway and the local police station is in disarray. Captain Billings (Michael Ironside) and Officers Degrasso (Gill Gayle) and Wright (Charlie Newmark) have apprehended three witnesses.

The witnesses comprise: Officer Jack Bennet (Kent Harper), one of their own, tough, but affected by recent events; Bobby (Pell James), young, high as a kite on cocaine and finally 8 year-old Stephanie (Ryan Simpkins), who has just witnessed her family being brutally murdered.

Even though everyone is ready to begin, they are still waiting... waiting for the Feds. When Federal Officers Elizabeth Anderson (Julia Ormond) and Sam Hallaway (Bill Pullman) arrive at Captain Billing's office, they have three sets of stories to figure out and a string of vicious murders to consider.

SURVEILLANCE boasts a cast headed by Bill Pullman (INDEPENDENCE DAY, LOST HIGHWAY) and British actress, Julia Ormond (INLAND EMPIRE, THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON). Alongside Bill Pullman and Julia Ormond, SURVEILLANCE stars newcomers Pell James (ZODIAC), Mac Miller (THIS GIRL'S LIFE) and Ryan Simpkins (REVOLUTIONARY ROAD) with Michael Ironside (DEEP WATER), French Stewart (BONES, 3RD ROCK FROM THE SUN), Kent Harper (PAPER DOLLS), Gill Gayle (PAPER DOLLS) and Charlie Newmark (LORD OF THE FLIES).

Directed by Jennifer Lynch, whose legendary filmmaker father David Lynch is executive producer, SURVEILLANCE is written by Kent Harper and Jennifer Lynch and is a Film Star Pictures/Lago Film production.
