Charles Dennis won the first Samuel Fuller Guerilla Filmmaker Award at the 2011 Buffalo International Film Festival for his short film ATWILL, which he shot on an iPad. Prompted by this success , Dennis decided to go one step further and film an entire feature on the iPad. The result is CHICANERY, a biting satire which Dennis says is "about adultery, terrorism and Homeland Security. It's about America." Dennis has assembled an amazing cast of actors including Michael Laskin, Patty McCormack, Brent Huff, Kate Vernon, Loren Lester, Rachelle Carson, Ross Benjamin, Rose Abdoo, Kenneth Welsh, Ron Orbach, Neil Dickson, Claudia Christian, Teresa Ganzel , Gene Mack, Michele Scarabelli, Pete Sepanuk, Zoi Kottas, Lianne Hu, Shawn Huff, Sun Hong, Tyne Stecklein, Simon Yokoyama, Seana McKenna, Mark Rydell and Fred Melamed. The film was shot on location in Los Angeles, Toronto and Stratford, Ontario.
