DAGR, a found-footage folk horror, shot using iPhones and iPads.
Outline: In their quest for online fame, two young women embark on a daring scheme to attain stardom. Posing as catering staff for a fashion commercial in Wales, their ulterior motive is to document themselves stealing the luxurious merchandise and share it on their YouTube channel. However, upon arriving at the designated location, they find it mysteriously deserted. Seizing the opportunity, they set up hidden cameras, ready to commence their grand heist. To their surprise, they stumble upon an iPad containing footage of the commercial shoot thus far.
Expecting a glamorous black and white tribute to Jean-Luc Godard, the women quickly realize that the footage takes an unexpected turn. The once alluring homage transforms into a spine-chilling nightmare reminiscent of the works of Wes Craven. As their ill-fated journey progresses, they are thrust into a paranormal abyss, where the line between reality and the supernatural becomes increasingly blurred. With their original plans overshadowed by this malevolent presence, the women must now confront the sinister forces at play while fighting to survive the haunting ordeal.
Filmed solely using iPhones and iPads, the movie intertwines three timelines, each with its distinct style. As the timelines collide in a climactic moment, DAGR stands out from other films in the genre. With Apple's support, providing cameras and significant marketing assistance, this modest yet innovative film prepares for an eagerly awaited release.
