Making of Jon Hewitt’s X

X tells the tale of two unsuspecting young women who are plunged into a deadly game of cat and mouse. High class escort Holly is retiring, kissing her call girl life goodbye. She just has one last night on the job to get through. Meanwhile, teenage runaway Shay arrives in the city broke and alone, doing whatever it takes to get through her first night on the streets of Kings Cross.

Holly and Shay are thrown together on a job that goes horribly wrong. They find themselves on an out-of-control roller coaster ride racing through a labyrinth of neon lights, seedy strip joints and grimy back alleys deep in the heart of the red light district. If they can get through this unrelenting night, they might just have a chance at a fresh start. Stars Viva Bianca (Spartacus: Blood and Sand) and Hanna Mangan-Lawrence (Acolytes, The Square).

The high-octain erocic thriller X, directed by Jon Hewitt, will be released on November 24 (Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane). The film opens in Sydney on December 1.

Here is part one of three on the making of the film.
