Award-winning filmmaker Joe Boi recently won an award at the Sundance Film Festival event for his latest screenplay, “Static.” Known for his compelling narratives and strong characterizations, Boi’s newest film project promises to delve deep into the haunting complexities of the human experience.

The Inspiration Behind Sundance Awarded Screenplay “Static”

When asked about the film’s backstory, Joe Boi shared a personal and meaningful narrative. “Static” follows the life of a jaded car mechanic who is not only burdened by the responsibility of caring for her mother but also by the unsettling realization that her mother may be grappling with something far more sinister—dementia, depicted as a demon.

Boi expressed the emotional weight of this story, reflecting on his own life experiences: “It’s based on my experience with my father, who suffered from dementia and unfortunately passed away in April of 2020. It’s truly a horrible disease, and writing this script was how I dealt with it.” By centering the narrative around the theme of dementia, Boi aims to give audiences a unique perspective that blends horror with the emotional turmoil of real-life struggles. He describes it as “The Conjuring meets Poltergeist,” setting the stage for a blend of suspenseful storytelling and heartfelt reflection.
