    Serious question here. How is this so much better than what we get from more traditional sources?

    Great visuals, acting and sound design. I was drawn in to the story the second it started. My only nitpick was the daughter just deciding to investigate the cargo. Common sense would be to NOT touch any unknown entity that is making someone sick. Why not try to be rid of it instead? But I guess her logic was put aside for plot reasons.

    I want to see what happens next when the cargo lands on planet Earth! Does Robin survive since she has been possessed by the alien? Will Rojo take the hero's quest to save Earth and restore his daughter? I really enjoy the father/daughter dynamic in the storytelling, and the smoking robot - super cool, and the E.T. plushie. The visual effects are superb and to the level of perfection. It is so refreshing to feel the heart of the Spanish language in this short-film. We see an alternative viewpoint from the dominant English speaking/ American dominant sci-fi genre. This character reminds me of Hans Solo but with more heart and less swagger. Superb work, great cinematic music and attention to detail!

      Yes! I want to see this go in both directions... Some of the cubes survive on the planet, and that could evolve into different stories, and then also the story of the El Camino, where he tracks down where these came from and who is responsible for her death.

    I love when I use to discuss what the far future of transportation would look like I explained it where there would be crews very similar to the show Firefly and that the cargo industry would be huge because you have to get these many different types of products, and parts even "private illegal loads" and languages wouldn't change much. Meaning there still will be a need for people to be bilingual trilingual or polyglots as to these types of cargo hauls would prove just as lucrative as there are no more "faux land borders" dividing people. People would look as if I was talking about an alien when discussing this matter but glad to see this director/film maker is showing a diversity in the space materials cargo industry that we are all too familiar within the sci fi genre. I've seen it in other DUST sci dramas but it's refreshing to see other cultures will still use their language in daily interaction

    Simple straight forward quality in a short sci fi episode. It works, it was clean, brief and felt real.
    No heroism, no hero stuff, no star wars action, no sci fi opera. It was right.
    Great work as usual. I loved that Spanish talk from Mexico too. It really settles the theme perfectly. I would love a multi cultural scene where people speaks in English, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, French among other common languages. That provides a deep genuine authenticity to such sci fi world.

    Right away, I liked the cockpit seen when the ship was on first approach--how the instrument panel filled the front part of the canopy. The ship interiors are awesome. They have the feel of a gritty, well-used vessel. Nothing hoaky there. The alien bug was nice and creepy. I knew it wasn't going to go well for daughter when dad said, "Stay away from the cargo." And smoking android-original touch. Hanger station-- all really well done and the acting was authentic.

    WOW...this was easily one of the best Sci-Fi productions I've ever watched on YT. In 13 minutes, you showed what a dedicated crew can do with about 2% of the Hollyweird budgets. I totally enjoyed this even if there were too many unanswered questions and of course, the "usual" error in judgement from the actress (a totally beautiful young lady, to boot). It would have made things a tad more interesting to know where the shipment originated and end goal of same. The CGI was tops and even if (IMHO) at least partially based on the "Alien" theme, I'd hope the writer/director is considering a 90-100 minute movie based on it with background info so as to make the entire story mesh.
