The son of the ocean
Written & produced by Luc Ziann
I am the son of the ocean. The poet. The king of dolphins. Lost at sea, on a boat to Medellin. A wonderful life, in the mystical light. Sea shells and pearls, the goddess of the earth. Music and wine, for the living divine. The greatest hero of all time. I am the son of the ocean. The poet. The King of dolphins. The sun shines on the horizon Guiding hearts through the unknown. Far away from my devotion Lies my stories untold Across the endless ocean Is where I belong

The Midnight Gag is a dark thriller made in Canada in 2023. Written and directed by Luc Ziann, it features a cast of promising local actors Brodin Ference, Luc Ziann, Morgan Oijen and Anna Garoucheva Gonzalez.
The film follows the conflict between a private detective ( Luc Ziann) and a brutal serial killer ( Brodin Ference) who has viciously assaulted his client.
Luc Ziann wrote the original script for The Midnight Gag in 2019, basing it on a standard horror movie. In time, this premise transformed into a reality fiction thriller based on true events that we see today. The Midnight Gag was shot in Vancouver Canada over 6 months from March to August 2023, funded exclusively by Luc Ziann.
This film was not only envisioned, written and funded by Ziann, but he also directed and filmed the production, played the lead character, Detective Travis Jackson, and was intimately involved in filming, music composition, audio and post-production. An amazing accomplishment for an up-and-coming filmmaker.
