This incredible short film by Peruvian filmmaker Montreuil is 6 minutes of pure, pharmaceutical-grade awesomeness. Set in a dystopic [6] Los Angeles, the film follows Chris Black [7] (Victor Lopez [8]), a man who “possesses a power that could lead to the destruction of the current regime” and his desperate race for survival. Produced on a budget of $5,000 – roughly the amount that Hollywood films spend on 1 page [9] of a script – it pound-for-pound equals or betters your average blockbuster.
You can watch the embed here, but if your broadband can handle it, I highly recommend heading over to Vimeo for the Hi-Def version [10]!
