This short is a FAIL for me, and I can't put my finger on exactly why. Is it cramming too much backstory into one cryptic conversation Is it hybridizing different animation styles with live actors Or is it the swords against guns silliness I don't know. But I think the filmmaker would benefit from watching less animation and sci-fi, or maybe no animation and sci-fi for a while.

200 years after humanity has abandoned the real world for a digital one, the system's most talented security agent is forced out of retirement to recruit and lead a team of talented warriors to eliminate a threat from a world no one has seen for centuries. The real world. YEAH. I'm sure everyone totally got that from watching this. Awful.

WOW! This is extraordinary! The acting, writing, and production values are top-notch! Despite this being a short film, it has Hollywood level special effects with a compelling story! I've seen better short films here on DUST compared to the 2 hours of crap that Hollywood dishes out in theaters! We want a sequel! Keep up the fantastic work! :)

Is this where the expanse is eventually heading. instead of Earth versus Mars versus belters we now have Humanity versus transhuman And having Cara from the expanse cast was a piece of Genius from a casting standpoint. This needs to be proof-of-concept for a major film. All the boxes got checked on this one

Cara Gee! I knew that was her! She has a distinctive diction and a powerful presence that are utterly ravishing. The visuals here are also quite unique and memorable. It would be a good story to tell fully.

Looks like another proof-of-concept short for a full-length film or series. That can get pretty tiresome. But Dust has set a fairly decent bar for quality, and even on its own terms, this is not up to that bar.

I'm sorry but no matter how talented or how gorgeous Cara Gee is, this short is just horrible. I just need a good story that's it, I have absolutely no idea what is going on here

Wake up folks, this is TransHumanism. Problem is once plugged in we'll be unable to unplug. Saddled by A. I. surveillance 24/7/365. Sort of like checking into a Roach Motel.

Wow I wish in me, that one day all of these good films get a secondary part or a series
But that's just dreaming, like the videos from Dust.
It's beautiful

Wasn't really comprehensible until I read the explanation in the notes. As such, the film doesn't stand up to watching it from scratch with no information beforehand.

2: 50. Why do they always separate. The injured one would have made more of an impact w/the support of the other. And might have actually survived. So dumb.

Hmmm not for me, sorry. Very beautiful though! May need more weight on the robot / humans: they seem too light for what they appear to be made of

This is brilliant and unique but I'm reminded of Tron, Dune, Aeon Flux, Shogun, THX-1138 and others. Thanks for this wonderful art!

Well I didn't get what that was about at all. If I hadn't read the brief on it I wouldn't have understood it.

Loved it.
Wouldn't mind if this would be the 3rd Destiny franchise part called The Origin of Exo. ;)
