WELCOME TO WESTBOUND FILMS
Westbound Films is a growing production company based in Burlington, Vermont. It is currently in post-production for a short film written and directed by Isaac Lane, Continua, which was recently shot in New York City. It is a story about a woman who mysteriously finds herself in a bistro, not knowing how she got there, who quickly realizes that she is reliving a terrible act that she committed, from "the other side."

Westbound is also in pre-production for another film short, Out of the Blue, based on the original story by Eli Hastings. This narrative tells of a man in search of personal redemption after the loss of his son and failed relationship with the woman he once loved. Seeking direction for his life he finds himself in the middle of the West Texas desert where he encounters another man closely pursued by his past. Principal photography for Out of The Blue is scheduled to be shot in Texas next year.
