After being wrongfully accused, it takes determination and a fleet of paper airplanes for one small student to bring justice to the classroom.

My first short film, shot when I was 16/17 years old with a bunch of friends while attending the New York Film Academy. It was shot on 16mm, which, in hindsight, was an unbelievable experience. The film won the NYFA Walter Murch Award for Excellence in Editing. As this was a student film, I don't own any of the sounds/music.

Shot on 16 mm film, The Fall of Tyranny is Michael Pizzano's directorial debut.
