A well concieved and well executed film that could almost work as a silent until the final, tense moments. Directed by Jon Knautz, whose favorite drink is orange juice, the film is both intruiging and thought provoking. It certainly opens the door for copycats to take the concept and see what else can be done. Knautz's first short, Apt. 310, was also made at the Vancouver film school he attended and at which he made the connections to found Brookstreet Pictures.
Shorts are certainly a different animal than the feature. One must make the set-up and delivery by utilizing the given time effeciently. Fortunately for a film like this, the pay-off is very rewarding and as such very memorable. It is amazing how the main character feels no emotion towards the human figures until the he sees them as real.
