A
groundbreaking new metaphysical noir film from writer/director James Kerwin, YESTERDAY WAS A LIE combines "stunning black-and-white cinematography, a sultry jazz score and a refreshingly high-minded script" (Variety). Produced on a micro-budget of $200,000
by a non-profit arts foundation, YESTERDAY has gone on to receive over a dozen film festival Best Feature awards, critical praise, and a release by Entertainment One.

Brown "exudes Bacall" (Slice of SciFi) as Hoyle,
a girl with a sharp mind and a weakness for bourbon
who finds herself on the trail of a reclusive genius (John
Newton). But her work takes a series of unforeseen twists as
events around her grow increasingly fragmented... disconnected... surreal.
With
a sexy lounge singer (Chase
Masterson) and a loyal partner (Mik
Scriba) as her only allies, Hoyle is plunged into a dark world of intrigue
and earth-shattering cosmological secrets. Haunted by an ever-present
shadow (Peter
Mayhew) whom she is destined to face, Hoyle discovers that the most
powerful force in the universe — the power to bend reality, the
power to know the truth — lies within the depths of the human
heart. "This ambitious film is a stunner, nothing less than the arrival of a major filmmaker" (Dennis Willis, KGO Radio / Flick Nation).
Also starring Nathan
Mobley, Warren
Davis, Megan
Henning, Jennifer
Slimko, and famed radio personality Robert
Siegel.
