A very well made, interesting short Sci Fi movie. Shows what can be done when you are really original and produce on your own.

    And thus gets born the 120 million movie that really was a 40 million or less movie. Richard hatch (of Axanar) spoke of the very topic at SD Comic Con in 2015.

    A short film has to pack a lot into a little, but do it carefully. They gave you a couple clues along the way, the human robots were sleepers put into place to unknowingly and unscheduled destruct, i.e. a perfect terror weapon. When they discover, or think they are one, they head back to the robot colony for help. Of course there are a lot of unanswered questions, some writers want it that way, to allow the view to play "what if", but sometimes they miss the mark. I have watched it a few times and still am not quite sure of everyone's motives.

    Yes, a friend used to work in special effects on Hollywood movies (e.g., Pirates of the Caribbean.) He reported that it was not unusual for a producer to get a new vacation house built from scratch and billed to the movie production. (No, I don't recall if it was done on Pirates.)

    Enjoyed it very much but left me with a lot of questions as to why, what were they trying to accomplish, where can they go next? Will watch others of this venue if I can find them.

    I used to feel that way too, then I got so disgusted with seeing a 90 minute POS, I had to change and accept that there are really good artists and producers out there who can tell a good story in 10 or 15. LEAP was another one.

    The One thing I dislike about these short well made, interesting films...is that they are too short! and unlikely to be followed up.

    Amazing how good a cheap, well made film can be. This is what is scaring Hollywood, these little movies get made for 20-40K and are good, vice 120 million for a piece of crap with too loud a sound and pretty effects.
