Director's Statement:
"I wrote and directed Nine Minutes from a simple idea I had. What if you knew you had only a handful of minutes left. What would you do? What would you reflect on? From there, I knew I wanted a grand scale and scope but to tell an intimate story. I landed on a solo astronaut explorer, Lilian. Intense and enthusiastic about her work. Stubborn to the end. She has to choose between her work and her own survival. The short developed into an allegory for my own feelings about leaving NC to move to LA to follow my career ambitions and what that means leaving behind. What relationships I lost, what time apart from family, and ultimately what that made me feel." - Ernie Gilbert

It was over as soon as I read they traveled to the far corners of the universe (it has no corners) to solve Earth's energy crisis. If we could travel to the 'corners' of the universe, we'd have no energy crisis.

Guess low battery warnings in the future are the same as my phone now. 15% remaining ... 20 seconds later the phone turns off.

i think i would have popped off my helmet in the last second. the ship was burning so chances are there was oxygen in the air

I'm just gonna say this: she walked away from the crash site, the biggest marker for her location and the easiest way to find the samples she values over her own life.

She had me in tears.... To think I just wasted 12 minutes I will never get back

@somehuman1901 4 года назад

I like her face at the end I feel it mirrors the audience after watching this.

@tovsteh 4 года назад

The reason she never takes her helmet off is because this was filmed in the outskirts of L.A you guys

It started slow, was slow in the middle but boy did it end on a slow note.

I think Lilian is a very sympathetic character, and Ms. Wu did a great job conveying her sadness, dedication & desperation. But as for the overall plot, and the final minutes of dialogue, all I can say is: "HUH?"

The comments here are better than the film.

Me: A 9 min short film can't be boring.

@NeekoFreeman 3 года назад

I see people complaining that the film is 12 mins while the title is 9min. If you remember, AI told her 33 minutes of oxygen left if she stands still. However, if she walks she will only have 30% maybe a bit less of that 33 minutes. Hence the 9 minutes.

The spaceship and this film are both similar in a way.....they both went nowhere

Im a lifelong Sci Fi fan and a long time fan of Dust. But I believe I have gotten tired of so many bad/sad endings to so many of these.

@chrebetcrunch 4 года назад

Constance Wu did a good job, but there was so much wrong with the script I wouldn't know where to start. Let me start with the beginning, when she had to get help finding the direction of the crash, yet you can clearly see all the smoke rising in the air.

I highly recommend this if you enjoy being bored to tears!

If you've ever faced your own death you will understand what a great job this was.

@longsin9993 4 года назад

Tl;dr: if the director/crew ever reads this, I’d just like to say, be careful with reflective surfaces, but otherwise, you have one viewer who liked the short.
