Tomorrow Ever After

What an inspiring movie, both as a fellow independent artist (Thier is an independent filmmaker) and the movie itself which suggests that a better world is not only possible, but the destiny of humankind. I was thoroughly captivated throughout, and appreciated both the humor and the message. Highly recommend!

This movie was one of the best I've ever seen and I'm a stickler for movie quality. Tomorrow Ever After is far from a cliché movie about time travel, but instead a laugh-out- loud sensation about the underlying issues with human society as we know it. Their's portrayal of the character Shaina brings a realness to the screen that most films lack. If you watch movies for their quality and craft, YOU NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE!

Tomorrow Ever After had me unexpectedly laughing, which I didn't expect going into the film. I laughed at the peculiar ways we separate ourselves from each other, to create distance instead of connection. I was touched by the interactions between the main character and the other characters and how her presence in their lives affected them. It's definitely an important film for our times that will make you question what else is possible for the human species.

We learned about the movie online, and were intrigued by the summary and reviews. The first minutes already captivated me. A main character to identify with, finally! The being from the future, Shaina (played by director and writer Ela Their), finds herself in an environment (NY) where people seem to care more about money than people. I do not want to reveal too much but the sense of awe enacted by the main character is wonderful. The portrayal of "NYers" Shaina meets seem accurate of how people act in the urban environment, for instance feeling alienated, ignoring and anxious. The experience of the movie makes it look more aligned with a harmonious social dynamic the way Shaina encounters people. The experience of the movie (and its creation) is a beautiful testimony to humanity and humble modes of being. Wouldn't it be nice to encounter curious, kind and nonjudgmental beings? I cannot remember when I was able to watch a movie that was not animated where a child-like curiosity felt so logical and natural. This is a movie I can watch again and again, just to become inspired to keep being curious and kind to create this world. Please go watch it!

Inspiring and uplifting. Do yourself a favor and go see this film. Hope it gets to be widely distributed. It reminded me of John Sayles wonderful "Brother from Another Planet" in that it shows terrible alienation but also the power of human beings connecting with one another. I also enjoyed seeing the New York City locales.
