Geoffrey Orthwein (COM’98) of Petaluma, Calif., coauthoredand co-directed the film Bokeh, which premiered at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival in February and opened in theaters in 13 cities in the US and Canada on March 24, 2017. Bokeh stars Maika Monroe (It Follows, Independence Day Resurgence, The Guest) and Matt O’Leary (Brick, The Lone Ranger, Eden) and, Geoffrey writes, “is a lo-fi/sci-fi, cerebral drama about an American couple on vacation in Iceland who wake up one morning to discover everyone on earth has disappeared.” The film was shot entirely in Iceland, with postproduction completed in San Francisco.
