In INDEMNITY, Travis Taute imagines a world where a fiendish South African cabal has conspired to weaponize Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. It’s a clever thriller, rife with twists, turns, and suspense. It also takes a unique, compassionate view of its protagonist, an ex-fire fighter, played by Jarrid Geduld, suffering from PTSD who resists treatment.
When I spoke with Taute via Zoom on August 30 2021, I asked him what it was about conspiracy theories, like the one he created in INDEMNITY, that is so irresistible to people. Full interview posting later, but for now, enjoy Travis’ insightful musings.
