I received an email the other day from David Bettencourt, the Co-Producer of an Indie Sci-Fi film called Project Arbiter, directed by Michael Chance. I’m quite thankful that I checked it out because it’s right up my alley… at the same time, I’m pretty bummed that a studio isn’t backing up a Brinks truck to this production and funding it for an all-out, full length, theatrical release of this film.

Business decisions, all, and only gradually does Adams reveal that the business connecting his ensemble is sex-trafficking, the meat market harvesting young women marooned in a strange land.
