Director Statement
TEST DRIVE is a film about the lows to which those in power will stoop in order to maintain control.
On a personal note, TEST DRIVE borrows heavily from a time in my life when I was a single dad: all the good intentions, bad mistakes, and ugly things I'd do to keep my daughter safe.
