"Time to Kill" (2014) by director Justin Rettke has just been released to the public on July 13, 2015. It is a short film about the long wait of a hitman as he spends all night inside his target's apartment anxiously anticipating his return home. The film held its world premier at the prestigious 2014 Palm Springs International Shortfest.

“Time To Kill is an award winning short that explores what a Hit Man does when all he has to kill is Time."

For years, we've seen that moment. The Hit Man, sitting in the chair, moonlight slicing across his face, his gun pointed at his sputtering victim. Harris is such a man, so very good at what he does. What he’s not so good at is filling the time before the kill. Time he spends questioning his life, wondering if he even has one. Harris can kill anything that moves... except time.
