Maybe those dark brown greasy spoiled potato chips. I've watched about a dozen of Dust's latest offerings and they've all been dark and depressing not to mention predictable. All the films I viewed belong in a landfill.
You know what I didn't spot the past version of her already dead body to her left the first time I watched this. It was your comment I found that made me think ? I'm missing something here ?? I went back to the part where she falls and watched 3 time's before I spotted the skeleton in the same position as her while she was lay dying. If it wasn't for your comment I would have completely missed that part lol. 👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻
Yes. I was critical of the main character's actions, then considered her situation and how disorienting it must have felt to her. Humbling. I'd like to see more of this.
What a fascinating concept. I’d love to see this “time compression” idea explored even more. The visuals of the fore-men were insanely good. I’ve seen a lot of sci-fi, THIS is special.
Really? I found them horrible. It was obvious that they were 3D. The movements felt very unnatural (assuming they're not machines). They should've been using costumes and only add the floating thingies with 3D software.
That final shot was absolutely gorgeous, and the design work on your Fore-Men was at the same time original and highly reminiscent of the plague doctors of medieval Europe. Cool movie.
Dystopian with a capital D. Sophia Walker did a great job with this character. And, the floating-ring redlight people were well imagined. This one is high quality and very original.
So the future "fore-men" excavated her fossilized bones and then compressed time to go back to see her as she died? Their "event" though caused massive disruptions to her current timeline before her death, even contributing to her demise in a way that wouldn't have happened without their "event" interfering.
At the very beginning when I saw the "smoke" coming out of the muzzle of a Crosman Vantage air powered pellet rifle, I thought, "Oh, okay....here we go. Another cheap student project." But I decided to give it a go anyway. I'm glad I did. Loved the acting, mood, sets and overall storyline. And that ending...damn, had me clicking back to watch it again. Fantastic!
I love the helplessness of a dimension reshaping and acting in a way our minds can't truly understand. And that we're not watching someone who is the classic "main character". She's a nobody like everyone else and the universe doesn't care about you
This was one of the most scary short films I've seen. I'm mesmerized by it and terrified. This film must be entered into film festivals. A real winner here.
WOW. Props on the visuals throughout. The Fore-men looked amazing. The house with the nautilus fused to it? How disturbing and yet beautiful was that? I am agog at the quality of this movie. Great acting, storytelling, and I can't get over how the visuals are more intense than Hollywood blockbusters.
This short shocked me hard because at the scene with deformed city I remembered I occasionally have been having those dreams where our planet starts to change in that way throughout my life. A lot of anomalies hapenning, objects and parts of regions of space combinging with each other, people having different rapid genetic mutations, encounters with diferent otherworldy creatures. And this short has an atmosphere of those dreams. Wow. Kudos to everybody who made this masterpiece. The amount of creativity shown here is beyond limits.
I was thinking, 'this is what insanity must feel like.' Or maybe being the lab rat smart enough to deduce it's in an experiment. Concept, execution, implied story. So much, and so well done, in just 15 minutes.
Really interesting concept, it almost seems like the Fore-Men are compressing/repeating time to achieve something in their favor. Their interest in modern humans makes me think they're trying to change, observe, or alter how humans will eventually evolve into them.
There were no modern Human, they were all dying off... I thing they were more interested in the History of the Planet in General. Maybe they were trying to find their missing link but their concern for humans was non-existent
@leonestello8519 i agree with this but im not so sure about them being concerned about their missing link. I like to think they were just paleontologists studying the past as well.
I don't know which was more cinematically impressive... the opening scene or the final shot. The story, the acting, the imagery, this film was just amazing.
This film was a totally unique concept which I believe was well executed. It left me wanting more. Time is not a straight line. For those of you who need some help understanding what happened the description explains the concept pretty well.
This is a sci-fi masterpiece! Original, the scope of the setting and design was just fantastic. The actors were wonderful, very believable in this chilling tale.
I really want to see more of this world. Would love to see a longer, expanded version of this. So much fertile ground here, so original, and so well done.
Yet another excellent short movie. So many talented writers, actors, directors and so on making these great shorts, while in Hollywood we mostly get sequels to 1970's movies.
What an excellent Sci-Fi short film! Supurb acting, and really original "Aliens"? The giant snails or ammonites, were a great touch. Thanks for aiming high.
Haha, the giant Ammonites really did exist that size, there’s one leaning against a wall or certainly did years ago near Lyme Regis in the UK that was the size of a mini, so they do get huge ✅ gigantism in pre history, what a time, but loving the concept of time observers, though travelling back in time is deemed scientifically impossible, so the concept is good but unless humanity finds a way, then the beings must be from another plane of reality to our own, another dimension ✅
Just great to see so much effort znd creativity on all of these ...dust...shudder....future amazing movies being nurtured here znd so many better than the Hollywood blah
I would for sure too. It is definitely the sort of short which downright demands to be developed further. It could be a great success. Sophia Walker is a great actor and she is exactly the type of person who can represent the complexity of endeavouring to understand that which is entirely alien to us,
Elements of "Annihilation" and "Death Stranding", come to mind,. Maybe also the "Last and First Men". Overall though this is a very good concept. I could see this idea being expanded on. Well done.
@@ecphorizerThere was a film made a few years back by Johann Johanson, based on the book.I learnt it about it then. The film is mostly imagery and instrumental music, but was also narrated by the actress Tilda Swinton. The trailers for it are on you-tube, and various clips and reviews. It might interest you.
Fun story.. but why was her decaying bodies in different location? She died and decomposed in one spot but it’s like she died in multiple places on the ground. Edit: wasn’t complaining, I think I personally missed something, I did rewind and rewatch that scene
The more we find the more dinos with feathers appear to have been common. Especially the theropods, which this looked like. In fact, modern specialists use the term "non-avian dinosaurs" for the ancient extinct beasts: Because at this point the know that technically: Birds ARE just one the familiy of dinosaurs who survived and diversified. Birds are avian dinosaur.
Someone was heavily inspired by Stephen King's "The Langoliers." One of my favorite "time displacement" movies. Also... maybe, Ray Bradbury's "A Sound Of Thunder", several Twilight Zone Episodes, and perhaps even "The Butterfly Effect"... or even the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror.
I wish there some more scenes!!!! I found the short film intriguing!!!! I have watched it several times on repeat!!!! I feel compelled to figure out the story/mystery!!!! LOL!!! 😂😂😂😂 I keep repeating certain scenes and dialog to pick up clues!!!! That note book was a clue!!! When she showed that dude, that picture of what looked like a dying dinosaur (Sally) on her cell phone!!! That's a clue!!! When the dude said he saw those humanoid figures with that stuff stinking out of them!!!! I think they were breathing equipment and scientific probe instruments!!!! They may have been aliens from another planet!!!! Doing a study of humans and other life forms that existed on our planet through out time!!!! I'm thinking these aliens brought the creatures to life to let them roam around for observation!!! I don't know!!!! Or maybe these aliens are terraforming !!!! 😮😮😮😮 OH dear!!!! I want to solve the mystery!!!! LOL!!!
This is where it's at people. Support these kind of indie works, this wuld be a banger of an opening scene for a movie.
Yeah yeah whatever.
When they figure out these are "Educational" maybe we'll get some Crash Courses for Dummies ❤
You knew she had to be smart when she used the phone in landscape mode for the photo.
H didn’t put it out of it misery tho, so not compassionate.

These short films are like potato chips, once you start watching, you end up binge-watching.
Swear lmao
No ..... this was trash

Always a bunch of negative people. Short low budget mind benders are great. They're so dependent on strong imaginations.
They really are
That final shot with her body decaying over time is crazy! 😱
You know what I didn't spot the past version of her already dead body to her left the first time I watched this. It was your comment I found that made me think ? I'm missing something here ??

If it wasn't for your comment I would have completely missed that part lol. 👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻
In fact I have just noticed it's not just 1 body there is like a circle of her body laying there from different past times 👍🏻 I get it now 👍🏻👍🏻
Spoiler 👎
@@HayumShidaba People who go read the comments before watching the video are looking for spoilers. It's their own fault if they see them.
I love the strangeness of encountering beings from distant times, past and future. This was so otherwordly.

Can't wrap my head around it - how much can these people pack in less than 15 minutes!!!! Amazing and fantastic work. Huge fan of DUST
I could. You clearly have too many things. What would to take?
That final shot was absolutely gorgeous, and the design work on your Fore-Men was at the same time original and highly reminiscent of the plague doctors of medieval Europe. Cool movie.
The Fore-men reminded me of the Tech-Priests from WH 40,000K.
The beaked "plague doctor" mask is an invention of the Italian theatre in the late Renaissance. It's not medieval whatsoever.
@@Nickname-hier-einfuegen the more you know.
The final shot seemed to show her body at a sequence of future times slowly fossilizing.
You got it.@@squeakeththewheel

They're getting worse with each case, lamer and lamer.
Glad you enjoyed it!
and that strange tree-clock in the front hallway . . .
She was being studied while studying...with the same result occurring in parallel.
Nailed it!
Tx. I had missed the whole idea.
So mabe someone studying the Fore-Men did it... Dun dun dun
Holy shit. Hollywood studios wish they could come up with something this good. Absolutely phenomenal.
Every time I see the evolutionary scale I can’t get the meme out my head.
“Go back we fuhked up”.
Wonderful actress. She nailed every scene and brought it to life for the viewer.

This needs to be expanded to a 6/8 episode series.
Thi was amazing. Great sci fi. The “red light” men were so imaginative. Really a special short. 👏👏👏👏👏
Dust is the best and finest Sci-Fi channel on TH-cam. Thank you to all the creators.
Really interesting concept, it almost seems like the Fore-Men are compressing/repeating time to achieve something in their favor. Their interest in modern humans makes me think they're trying to change, observe, or alter how humans will eventually evolve into them.

WHAT KINDA DOPE WERE THEY SMOKING WHEN THEY CAME UP WITH THIS!?!?!?
Very good .The story got me guesting what was goin on. Great
Awesome! Mind-bending Sci-Fi! I loved it!
I don't know which was more cinematically impressive... the opening scene
or the final shot. The story, the acting, the imagery, this film was just amazing.
Death stranding vibes with this, so cool!
Loved it! The creatures with all of those cables and red lights coming out of them was very cool. Nice job!
My guess is cameras of some sort documenting everything. Fantastic piece!
Very good! The Fore-Men looked awesome.
Well done!! This is so cool! Thanks! Finally, no boring zombies!
This is Outstanding. Need more of this story please!!!
Simply brilliant. Quite disturbing and surreal. Amazing work on a non Hollywood style budget.
Now THIS. This was impressive. I would love to see a feature film or series based on this short. Amazing premise, characters, everything.
Truly enjoyed this. Left me wanting it to have lasted longer. ❤
Thank you for the kind words!
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Excellent short. Different. Very interesting. Excellent production values, pretty believable acting with intensitivity!

The peak of her insanity crashing when she see there no city left was amazing

Superb. The story, concept, acting, CGI and images, all among the best of current cinema. Amazing how much can be packed into 15 minutes. Superb.

This short deserves a TV series or a movie!
This was well done. In such a short time it made me invested and care about the characters. I enjoyed the whole thing.
I absolutely love the concept...wish it were made into a full-length film.
What a good short film there should be full movies to tghese films love it
Such well produced, well acted short films. Love the idea behind it also
Just great to see so much effort znd creativity on all of these ...dust...shudder....future amazing movies being nurtured here znd so many better than the Hollywood blah
Amazing story an superb execution. I want more!
this should be a feature length movie of its own.
We're those giant snails on that house, early on??? Weird!!!!
Ammonites
From like millions of years ago!
Excellent acting, filming sound.. Brilliant star of a film🌟🔥
Now this was a very thought provoking presentation. Very nicely done.
Hi, yeah... can I get the full-length movie and some fries, please?
they have so many bangers on this channel but this one really captured me
reminds me so much of death stranding, God i love it, great work!
That was awesome! I'm so confused! I love being confused!!! Don't unconfuse me!!!
LOL, me too!
Turn this into a full-length movie now and get it in theaters, I want to go see it.
I would for sure too. It is definitely the sort of short which downright demands to be developed further. It could be a great success.
Sophia Walker is a great actor and she is exactly the type of person who can represent the complexity of endeavouring to understand that which is entirely alien to us,
Just goes to show that archeology is a gateway activity to wanting to reanimate the dead.
This has House of Eternal Return written all over it. ❤
