event Ink

Independent filmmakers have long been forced to deal with tight budgets, casting restrictions, and whatever shooting location could be found down the street. But a new generation has started using those limitations as strengths—and Denver’s Jamin Winans is a perfect example. The writer-director’s new film, Ink, is a surreal, horrifying, yet moving urban fantasy cast and shot entirely in Colorado. Winans manages to morph the mundane and familiar into something utterly otherworldly, evoking the teeming atmosphere and warped imagination of everything from Terry Gilliam’s Brazil to Darren Aronofsky’s Pi.
