    Could be the way of the future.

    Glenn Forbes did a great job as a Director, but it was the unique camera work that would really impress anyone looking for a new type of shooting style. It has a look almost like a newer "Blade Runner"type of Movie.

    Futuristic example limit-pushing techno coffee we serve today

    After seeing this movie I felt a little disturbed. The idea is not new but the relevance is certainly with us now. Beautiful imagery, well shot, great as a short film. Music is very haunting and well developed with the story line. I got a rush from the tension that was put together with sound and vision. The title song "These Other Things" playing at the credits is the best song I have heard from a short film.
