“17 years since the last tree” and the kid is reading a pbook? Yeah. Right.
So, was this whole thing caused by asteroids, or something mankind did? Or did mankind send the asteroids crashing? The beginning is a little confusing.
The YouTube description had more Backstory. I should have included it here:
John,
Can I just tell you it’s cool that you post these short SF films on SFSignal? I know, I know. To 99% of the world SF is *already* movies and television.
And to me and many SFSignal readers SF is 99% literature and most mainstream movies and TV are a pale comparison to what we see in our mind’s eye but that doesn’t mean there still isn’t a place for well-done SF shorts.
Thanks for allowing and sharing Short Films on SFSignal.
You’re welcome, Dan! Thanks for taking the time to say so
I very much enjoy these as well, John. They are often surprisingly well crafted and it doesn’t bother me if they don’t have time for coherent world-building – it’s a short film. A punchy story is good enough.
