Before starring as Timothy McVeigh in Showtime's 2023 series Waco: The Aftermath, Alex Breaux shares the screen with series lead Kiowa Gordon from AMC's hit show Dark Winds in this award winning indie thriller.
In the future, every U.S. citizen has the right to own one clone of themself. Clones have no rights and can only become citizens if emancipated by their original human.
After 30 years together, Alex suddenly elects to emancipate his clone Richie, but his closest friends begin to question his true intentions.

DIRECTOR STATEMENT
After the release of my first film An Act of War, I was struck with a yearning desire to learn as much as I could about the various aspects of filmmaking beyond my experiences while directing. I subsequently enrolled into the film program at Montclair State University where I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Filmmaking. CLONE was my senior thesis film, and every ounce of my heart and soul went into bringing this script to life. Along with my producing partners, our amazingly talented cast and crew made this project possible, and I'm delighted to finally be able to share it with an audience.
