A young man is approached by an old man claiming to be a time traveler.
So here is the tale of how this movie got made. After starting the San Diego Sci Fi Filmmakers group in 2009, a group of us (Phil Roberts, Jason Lethert, etc... )decided to make a feature film. Then a second one.
During filming of the second one, I told my Jason that we should make a few short movies to fill in our down time. He agreed.
That night I wrote an 8 page script called The Machine.
It was a story I had been wanting to do for a while, and the original premise was that a young man finds an old man lying dead in a time machine, still clutching the keys. He takes the keys and starts gallivanting around the universe. In the end, we discover that he was the old man all along.
Paradoxical? Absolutely, and that was what made the idea so intriguing. Jason and I tossed the script around for a week or two until it became what you just watched. Its not the greatest, nor was it meant to be, but it enabled Phil and I to create an ever expanding universe (check out The Interview and The File short movies).
And I cant wait for you to see whats coming.
