Sci-Fi Short Film: Best Friend - DUST Not that I dont like happy endings but I think it would have been a better ending for him not to have had the friend device replaced because although it feels sad and lost for him, it would have been a bittersweet start to a better life and possibly finding a REAL new best friend in the real world. Then again, I suppose it could just be displaying how addictive some things can be and how hard it can be to break the pattern. Great job though, fascinating spin on a common trope!

100 Downvoters can't admit to themselves that we're already living in this society.
Good Sci-fi is socially relevant. Great sci-fi is prophetic. This 5 minute short does better what many movies fail to do. It's a chilling allegory for today and a cautionary tale of the future. This one has me terrified.

wonderfully done! just a short summary of the virtual friend technology that is already in the works, in many forms.
sad tho that it will be very addictive as it is portrayed. virtual friends, pets, partners. would you pay to have a virtual job I bet some would! haha

reply

Much better than being addicted to face book. At least the 'friend' requests are actually friends and not random weird strangers from some dark corner of the internet, selected by a faceless algorithm, based on how much advert money they can generate from you.

Woah bigest problem in the future. Waiting 10 minutes in the line surely too much of a trouble so instead let's try to find another machine even tho the linr would end by then

Addictions are something else. Funny how our physical bodies and our unconscious work together to get something that you mentally don't want, but your body craves
reply

Yes, sucha thing can be addictive. But only for the kind of person who would be else addicted to something else. So yes, realistic. And well done. Nice short.

Without it they are just ghost and shadows drifting so fast around them they can’t make out what they are as they are unrecognizable

Wow, who's an introvert and would probably purchase this device in the future if it exists I'll just get more cats instead of this.

It's very sad that some in this generation seem to be dependent on their social media for friends.
