Seam

Most of society tries to go about their own business. But some destructive machines, whose purpose is to stand up for the oppressed, have formed a treaty with the government. They have a place in the desert where they can exist, but they send enhanced spies into the regular society to see what is going on. Two people become the center of all this and they are pursued relentlessly. Lots of action in this short thriller.

'Seam' is short sf movie written and directed by Dassani brothers who are perhaps best known for their visual effects work in Hollywood television series. This short has great, but many times used (war between humans and machines) idea with little twist - machines have their sleeper agents among regular people. High production values and amazing FX (for a short film), but that's about it. Actors are doing great job, and they have material to work with, but the film is just too short to tell their story completely. Basically, the whole film feels like one action sequence from feature length movie, but not the complete story itself. That is my main complaint (and the shaky cam). Still, it is worth 20 minutes of your time if you're big science fiction fan.

Brilliant SF. Why these short SF films are always so much better then long, big studio movies. I've seen it today, on DUST Youtube channel, with many similar ones, and most of them are gold.

The story as suggested , you having only pieces from them. The desert and the Arab language , the town- who could be from North Africa or Middle Orient are virtues , too. The start scenes and the end are inspired. The performance is beautiful. So, a beautiful film, a serious short Sci. Fi., giving touching love story and terrible clash between people and machines, the price of desobedience and the wise, admirable use of FX.

Definitely a professional job good acting, from all, good cinematography and effects. Had the look of a short done with an eye toward getting backing for a larger production. I would definitely watch a longer more detailed version.
