A lawyer friend of mine once told me, ‘Steve, life ain’t fair. It’s just legal.’

Legal or not, what wasn’t fair was me sitting by myself, in a shit-hole bar on a Friday night with an empty glass while Tommy Push Ups chats up the barmaid. If I wasn’t on a case I’d get her attention and ruin Tommy’s plans at the same time, but rule number one when you’re tailing somebody – don’t draw attention to yourself. Especially when there are only six people in the joint.

My name is Steve Salem, and I’m a Private Investigator in Flagler Beach, Florida. Most of my days are spent following cheating husbands, and believe me, sometimes it’s just not worth the money. Contrary to popular belief, there are very few car chases and I’ve never had to kick down a door. The work ain’t glamorous, but it’s legal, and it pays the bills.

The Story:

Influenced by classic film noirs of the 40’s and 50’s, BACKSEAT TO JUSTICE is an original Blindogg Productions mini-series based on the novel of the same name, written by Flagler Beach author Tim Baker, and published by Blindogg Books.

Flagler Beach Private Investigator Steve Salem is hired to tail an unfaithful husband. Not the most stimulating work but it supports his lifestyle. When the subject of his surveillance is lynched right before his eyes, Steve thinks the job is over, until the dead man’s widow hires him to find her husband’s murderer.

Filled with action, suspense and drama, BACKSEAT TO JUSTICE follows Private Investigator Steve Salem as things go from boring to bizarre.  

Finding the killer is only the beginning of the adventure.

What began as a routine tail job quickly escalates into a multi-layered mystery where nothing is as it seems, and the past is coming back to haunt a lot of people.

Steve quickly learns two things…the past is never that far away and sometimes the law has to take a BACKSEAT TO JUSTICE.

The Project:

Collectively, the production team of “BACKSEAT TO JUSTICE” has a combined variety of experience spanning thousands of hours of network, streaming, motion pictures and cable television. In addition, they have individually participated in over 1000 independent films as  producers, production management and production support staff.

Our team is highly committed and thoroughly dedicated to creating a quality production on a low budget.

We are going to use every possible option from our decades of combined film experience relying on favors, donations, and our community to produce this amazing movie.

Feed Me. We need to feed our cast and crew while we’re filming so a portion of the money will be used for food and miscellaneous supplies. Have you ever worked with a “hangry” camera operator?!

Home-away-from-Home. While we plan to use a cast of Florida locals, we realize Florida is a big state and some of our talent may be several hours away. We’ll need to provide accommodations for any out-of-town talent.

Insurance. Production insurance is an extremely important necessity and one we don’t want to do without. Your contribution will help us purchase the required coverage for our entire cast, crew, locations, and equipment.

It’s an uphill battle making an independent production, but with your support in funding our Kickstarter and sharing the project with your friends we can make it a reality!
