While airline black box recordings have been incorporated into various documentaries, a new film will put them to unprecedented use. Charlie Victor Romeo, which premiered at Sundance Film Festival and recently stopped by New York Film Festival, brings to life six black box recordings of real emergencies.
Adapted from a stage play by directors Robert Berger, Patrick Daniels and Karlyn Michelson, the film also uses stereoscopic 3D to capture the events, adding another layer of immersion. The first teasers for the project have now landed, which hint at a one-of-a-kind visceral experience. Check out the first footage t below (via First Showing), as well as the poster, for the film that will hopefully secure distribution soon.
Through the use of state-of-the-art 3D Stereoscopic camera technology and the highest quality audio recording and engineering we bring this groundbreaking and powerful international phenomenon to the big screen allowing moviegoers the same thrilling, devastating and uplifting experience live theater audiences have experienced for years in a way that has never been done before.
Embraced by the aviation community for its unsparing truthfulness and dedication to its non-sensational approach, CHARLIE VICTOR ROMEO has been filmed by the US Air Force as a training video for pilots and has been observed by West Point cadets enrolled in courses studying engineering psychology and human error. It is estimated that over one-third of the production’s audience have been members of the aviation community.
Charlie Victor Romeo is currently seeking U.S. distribution.
