LOS ANGELES - March 28, 2019 - PRLog -- Short Film Thriller, "Seize," To Bring Attention to the Plight of Children During Child Abuse Prevention Month.

Award-winning director J. Pinder teams up writer Joe Rechtman and producer Michael G. Gray to tell the story of a young girl who must discover the mystery behind her seizures in order to save her brother from a child abuser.

We are proud to announce the worldwide release of our short film, "Seize". Waking up in the ICU to find out she had been orphaned in a car crash was the worst moment of Hanna's life. After a lengthy stay in the hospital, it was a relief to finally join her brother at their foster home.

But something is very wrong. Before she can get to the bottom of the mystery, she's stricken by a seizure and wakes up back in the ICU, right after the car accident. Now she is destined to relive her grief and recovery over and over again, unless she can solve the mystery of what's happening to her, and break the cycle. It's an intense roller coaster that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats until the very end.

A new take on a classic plot device (Groundhogs Day, Edge of Tomorrow, Happy Death Day) Seize combines important social issues with a proven method of delivery. It champions women's empowerment and children's rights. The film serves as a metaphor for the cycle of abuse. Where many perpetrators of abuse are destined to repeat the cycle, Hannah must find a way to literally break hers in order to save herself and her brother.

It currently has the support of several influencers and organizations such as End Child Abuse Long Beach, Victorious Children and Fighting for Abused Children.

Seize is brought to life by passionate performances from Raven Bowens (The Simone Biles Story; Future Man; The New Edition Story) Reem Kadem (Nawal and the Jewel; Jane the Virgin; The Last Ship; SEAL Team) John Combs (Sneaky Pete; Weeds) Cristian Fagins ( The Rookie; The Mayor; Lethal Weapon) and Robin Karfo (NCIS; Criminal Minds; Grey's Anatomy).

The film will stream for free on Vimeo and Youtube starting April 1st.
