Featured reviews
This is a remarkable short movie, with high emotional strength.
SciFi as a society-mirror at its best.
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.
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.
This is one of those Short Films where everything was just done 'right'. Perfect cast, good storytelling,.. camera, lighting, sound, sfx and editing all spot on, and all to blockbuster standards. Reason for missing 2 more stars - it should be a feature, and there's a single time/duration issue in the final act, which would take a spoiler to describe, and this film should be reviewed spoiler-free.
The desert has its own voice, soul and machine, too. In this good movie , with amazing VSFX, the desert is personified in a machine to defense the people . In the future, brother Dassani could propose great Arabic Sci F movie :
the ancient misteries and inherent forces of the Arabic world. Now this is a good shortfilms and we could dream a great Sci-F movie in this way from Jazwood
