The Buried Secret of M. Night Shyamalan
Director of Photography
Conocido por la realización de éxitos como "El sexto sentido", "Señales" o "El protegido", el guionista, productor y director de cine de origen indio, M. Night Shyamalan, es el creador de un mundo etéreo de suspense, sólo comparable al suyo propio. "El secreto de M. Night Shyamalan" es un thriller al estilo de la película "El Proyecto de la bruja de Blair", que muestra a un personaje rodeado de secretos. El documental se inicia cuando el director, Nathaniel Khan, trata de entrevistarlo durante el rodaje de "El bosque". El equipo se traslada al lugar y, mientras espera, recoge con sus cámaras los misterios que lo rodean. En el documental tratan de hacer creer al espectador que Shyamalan posee poderes, curiosamente, los mismos que algunos de sus personajes; aderezado con entrevistas supuestamente no autorizadas a actores de la talla de Johnny Depp, o la supuesta foto fantasma en la que Shyamalan sale algo borroso.
