Synopsis: A brave Deaf woman searching for her missing friend encounters a Deaf alien struggling to come to terms with his traumatic past. Director - Mark Trifunovic Mark Trifunovic is a filmmaker from Leeds, U.K., now living and working in Toronto, Canada. Most recently, Mark wrote and directed Deafening Darkness, a Toronto Arts Council funded psychological drama/thriller, working with an all Deaf cast, that sought to address themes of isolation within the Deaf community while celebrating the richness and diversity of Deaf culture. Mark's filmmaking career started in the U.K. working as a production assistant and assistant director on various music videos, short films, TV dramas, documentaries and feature films, during which time he was able to start making films of his own. He received support from Leeds' BAFTA award winner Kay Mellor to make his short horror film, DRIP, after working with her on a production in Leeds. In 2015, Mark produced his first feature film, Busking Turf Wars, working closely with his younger brother Peter who co-wrote and directed the film. After a packed out premiere screening at Leeds' Hyde Park Picture House, Busking Turf Wars went on screen at film festivals in the USA, Canada and England, winning several awards including the coveted Audience Choice award at No Gloss Film Festival when it returned to screen in Leeds in October 2016. The film is now available to rent and purchase through VimeoOnDemand. Alongside a number of shorter form projects, Mark is currently working on a treatment for a feature length film to once again work with members of the Deaf community.
