FILM SYNOPSIS:
“Shade of Grey” is woven from the intricate relationships of several characters who repeatedly find themselves in the same anonymous motel room across several years. Evan (Scott Ganyo) and Samantha (Katelyn Coyne) are a married couple enduring the strains of a relationship devoid of communication. Bryan (Ben Schmitt) and Sarah (Monica Barajas) are love-struck teenagers wanting to run away to start a new life. Nicole (Jennifer Berkemeier) and Ashley (Leah Winkler) are two best friends on the road in search of good times and debauchery. Though unbeknownst to them at first, they, and many others, will forever be changed by the consequences of their actions within this temporary cell. As their stories are laid bare, the players become forever interconnected, unknowingly staking their claim as a part of the history of this seedy intersection where one moment lives are cut tragically short, and another they begin anew. Through affairs, betrayal, lust, heartache, and greed they will find themselves broken. Through hope, love, and second chances they will find themselves redeemed. It's about family, the complicated and fractured ties that exist as people try to forge that definition. It's about the overwhelmingly necessary and potentially destructive power of love. It’s about an intersecting point in which people overlap and collide, where no one escapes scathe-free as they muddle their stories into one chapter of this room’s many shades of grey… It is the story of a room, and those connected to it.

WHAT CRITICS ARE SAYING:

"Executed to perfection. A powerful film, and there are moments to be found that are simply breathtaking. Don't miss this one. 9/10" - Chad Connolly, MvMMDI

"Visually stunning. A thoughtful and heart wrenching drama. Bilinski's film turns out as a complete success." - Josh Samford, ROGUE CINEMA

"With Shade of Grey, Bilinski has taken several steps forward in the quality of his filmmaking and at this rate, it wouldn't surprise me at all if you started hearing his name more often." - Steve Dale, FILM APOCALYPSE

"This film could become a classic human drama." - Bob Estreich, SYNERGY MAGAZINE

“Unrelenting. Hard, driving, and dangerous.” - Bruce Simmons, HUNTINGBURG PRESS

“Emotionally exhausting. A dark and sometimes twisted drama. An unusual and truly intense journey into the strange world and the bizarre experience of being human.” – IMDB Review

"This is masterful narrative. Will challenge viewers in the way great art should challenge. The film is simply exquisite visual storytelling. [An] artistic triumph.” – Alfred Eaker, FRINGE CINEMA
