Curiozități

The Heart Machine is a 2014 romantic thriller film written and directed by Zachary Wigon in his feature directorial debut. The film is based Wigon's 2012 short film Someone Else's Heart. The film is about a man who attempts to track down the woman with whom he has been in an online-only relationship, as he suspects that she has lied to him about key details of her life. The film was released in a limited release on October 24, 2014, by Filmbuff.

Production

The initial idea came to Wigon after one of his relationships ended. Although the relationship had gone well while it temporarily transitioned to Skype, it ended once they reunited and Wigon realized that they had drifted apart. This experience inspired Wigon to imagine a character who prefers Skype-based relationships. Wigon wrote the film when he was going through a period of loneliness and feeling isolated.

Shooting took place in New York City over 18 days. For the scenes in which the actor conversed using Skype, the actors were put in different rooms of the same house and filmed their conversations using the application. Due to Internet outages and software failures, they had to reshoot several scenes. The actors rehearsed their scenes face-to-face prior to shooting to develop a sense of intimacy.
