Shriek-inducing thrillers, some that may hit too close to home.
About the Film: Triggered, (written by Thomas C. Dunn) tells the story of Ohio (Isiah Whitlock Jr.) and Virginia (Caitlin Mehner), two people who have lost family members to tragic and senseless incidents of gun violence. After succumbing to their grief, they seek retribution against an influential senator (Tara Westwood) and her husband David (Robert John Burke), whom they hold responsible for their loss.
About the Filmmaker: A native of Manitoba, Canada, Tara Westwood studied acting at The William Esper Studio and Maggie Flanigan Studio, both in New York City. Tara’s movie credits include The Grudge, Blackjack: The Jackie Ryan Story, The Big Take, The Karma Club, and has the Gerard Butler film The Plane coming out. Her television credits include the upcoming Fleishman Is In Trouble, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, FBI, and Bull, among others.
A passion for filmmaking led to her growing desire to get behind the camera, which she did for the first time when she produced the feature film Detours, in which she also starred. She has since produced the television pilots Hit Man and Hudson Falls. Triggered is Tara's directorial debut.
