The Untethering by Jon Di Rocco
Jon Di Rocco is an Argentine-American writer currently living in Charlotte, North Carolina. At an early age, he discovered the power of escapism through words. Using them to create entire worlds when his own felt dull and monotonous. Nowadays, Jon continues to advocate for his stories and hopes to convey his vision for them as a Writer/Director.
Pipeline execs called his thriller pitch “a refreshing spin on a well-worn plot device” and “a film that could make an impact on multiple levels, both in the genre and the weight it carries in psychological exploration.”
