This sci-fi drama takes us to an Orwellian future. A dystopian society where everyone is connected and technology allows man to consume massive amounts of content in just seconds. Volumes of books, films and television are instantly absorbed. Over time, this has made mankind incapable of original creativity. All but one individual.
This is the story of Tom Goodwin, a technology consultant responsible for supplying content to the masses. A man who holds a secret that he is keeping. Someone he is protecting. But is it strictly for selfish reasons? Or is it because of feelings he's too afraid to reveal.
The choices we make in life determine what, or whom, we truly love.

This was our 2011 48 Hour Film Project, a first for everyone on the crew. We had just 48 hours to conceive, create, shoot and edit an original short film. Each film had to contain three elements. A consultant named Tom (or Tina) Goodwin, a book, and the line "When will she be here?"
Shot on the 7D with Zeiss CP.2 35mm T2.1 cinema lens, a Canon 50mm 1.4, and a Canon 100mm 2.8 macro.
The technology in the film is closer than you think:
