      You...
      This...
      Too many films start off well, then some glaring inconsistency occurs, throwing me back into my 'reality' and out of the reality I'd immersed myself into, regardless of whether it's a short or feature length.
      A really good film (or book, etc) requires we suspend _our_ time/space, giving us hours, days, weeks (lifetimes and generations on occasion) in exchange for short periods of our own lives.
      You have the ability to achieve this, which can be clearly seen in this short.
      The cast and crew were equally superb.
      I invested in the plot and characters and happily so.
      I hope we see further examples of your work on Dust and know you'll go far in your industry.

    That was really beautiful and heartbreaking and shows that sometimes the kindest of souls can be pushed Into things they never would normally do to help protect their family and loved ones. Or, it can be interpreted that she let everyone see her as the bad apple because it made it easier to commit crimes to provide food and rent. Often we are soooo fast to judge others. But you know most of us are really just doing the best we can with what we have. Or are given or dealt. And I see this film as just that. Her ability to beam herself started glitching when everything else began to glitch and fall apart in reality. There’s so much to get out of this film. And so much to relate to for some of us. Except the whole beaming ourselves out of bad situations or to the er. It’s still a great concept and executed beautifully. Loved this. ❤️

      I totally disagree. It is the opposite of what you are saying. There are a multitude of people in that exact situation who do not take short cuts, who do whatever it legally takes to make ends meet. She decided a life of crime was the easy way. Stealing and hurting others without thinking through the consequences. Abandoning her family, bringing shame and stress when they find out it was her, risking her family going to jail for having the stolen cash. Just terrible role modeling to her young sister. This is moral relativism, not courageous and virtuous. She's the bad guy and the writer wants us to root for her. Just wrong. Without backstory it's a binary choice that frankly I think is a no brainer unlike Denzel Washington in John Q where he struggled with his morality. Movie makers have forgotten how to actually tell stories that make us care. Acting, special effects, production, and music don't replace a good story. And this wasn't a good story. It was sad and no one came out a winner.

    Great run & gun mood piece, and the scaling parallel emergency situations run well together. This is an example of the dual-climax sequence done well, with good pace and editing. The cut points are crucial to make this kind of thing work so they don't stumble over each other emotionally, and I think they got it right on this one.
    As far as details go, I think they got the length right, too. It was just enough to tell the story, but didn't go so long that it drags you through the inevitable paradoxes, like "How does a girl with a portable wormhole generator have any economic problems whatsoever?! She could trade that puppy in for at least a billion dollars from various organizations, and she clearly doesn't have any conscientious objections to legality or safety issues."
    ...but for 12 minutes, we can stay with the action and story progressions without overthinking the obvious. If it tried to run for 30 or more minutes on this premise, or if it stopped to try to justify itself with a bunch of exposition, it would fall flat and come off as horseshit. Alternately, if it tried to keep up this pace/intensity for that long, it would turn into boring mindless mayhem and lose sympathy.
    As it is, it's punchy and quick enough that if you decide you don't like the details later, you can substitute settings or circumstances of your own imagining where the basic storyline would still work. This is a presentation piece, not a whole dissertation. It's a generic situation where people are acting and moving and special effects happen, and for this runtime that's enough opportunity and excuse to enjoy it.
    A good short film and a good feature-length can be different in more ways than how long it takes to watch them, and it isn't even all the same things that make them good.

    Lots of emotion. But couple things that end up being big hurdles. One thing is what a lot of movies of this genre stumble over, the conflict or the fork in the road scene that is supposed to be suspenseful, but is really just something that could be easily solved by the already established ability to get out of a jam.
    Freezing time or time travel movies fall into that often if they aren't careful with the writing. Main character faces a problem, but the problem continues for the sake of keeping the plot going or for the sake of creating suspense when they could easily freeze time to gain and just casually walk away from danger or go back in time and start over.
    The second thing, she possesses that kind of technology, in dire need of money, and she can't come up with a better way than what she's doing to get money. Can't help but think of things like she could go on Shark Tank and make and be set for life with a simple demonstration.
    It was enjoyable to watch. It's just that it needed some extra things to be established with the dialogue or the plot that would allow you to accept the easy fixes that the character didn't take advantage of. I can make my own assumptions to them, such as maybe she had just created this backpack transporter. Which would bring up a conflict on being able to create it in her bedroom while being so strapped for money.
    Or something like a conflict with believing that the dissemination of technology like that has a dangerous side for what it could be used for that she has to weigh against doing that so that she could help her mother.

      Stop being so pessimistic.
      The sister has cash to pay for the mother's treatment and our heroine has an expensive, linen banknote dressing, which doubles up as payment for treatment and to get her back home.
      All's well that ends well, so dry ya iz.
