A man in a time-loop must work with his brother to prevent a catastrophic fire.
EXIT STRATEGY is used with permission from Travis Bible. Learn more at vimeo.com/user25416121.
Math genius Shane reunites with his estranged brother over breakfast one morning. He has an unusual request: he knows something bad is going to happen in the future, and he needs his brother's help to prevent a tragedy.
The pair embark on a complex series of events, but must work together despite their history of conflict and resentment. And -- they're also caught in a time loop, which complicates their efforts to prevent the future catastrophe.
Writer-director Travis Bible has crafted an energetic, smart sci-fi thriller that easily pulls an audience in with smart, clever storytelling, rapid-fire dialogue and briskly compelling pacing.
The camerawork and direction is equally confident, adding to the short's sharp, propulsive rhythm. The result is a compelling cinematic experience that is genuinely entertaining without sacrificing intelligence or craft.
Fans of sci-fi will be familiar with the convention of time loops and enjoy this particular riff on the subgenre. But the film also works on the level of a relationship story, with genuine emotional engagement and growth between the two brothers. Though we don't get to spend a lot of time with them, they're able to develop with full arcs as characters, making the ending surprisingly moving.
EXIT STRATEGY is being developed into a feature, and with its intricate world and clever thrills, the stories and characters should easily expand into a larger narrative. As a short, it's authentically fun, fast-paced and surprisingly resonant -- in other words, everything people head to the multiplex for.

BCshooterFMJ PRIME No his brother says he doesn’t care because he spoke twice to him since his brother died and then he dies because he wants to get to the fire but now after the breakfast they will bond and his brother will care. And therefore not die.

@leonmuller8475 4 жыл бұрын

BCshooterFMJ PRIME Notice how in the beginning Shane is totally not social and completing his brothers sentences. He is not trying to connect with him just trying to let him live and trough all of the day he doesn’t socialise with his brother and that’s why his brother in the end doesn’t care and rather dies. And then he actually socialises with his brother and saves him that way. Because the moral (as I understand it) is that the most obvious/direct way doesn’t always work. Instead when you cannot solve a problem try to approach it from a completely different angle.

The way he casually mentions that his brother would get decapitated if they sped through the road block shows that he has become desensitized to death because he's seen him die so many times, I've rewatched this film a lot, and that part always fascinates me.

When he time looped he just disappeared. He doesn't rewind time he just goes back, leaving each timeline with one brother dead and the other missing.

@flatebo1 4 жыл бұрын

Maybe, maybe not. He's not so much stuck in a time loop as he is a time traveler who keeps travelling back to the same point. Obviously Original Shane heard of his brother's death, then created a time machine to go back and prevent it. Which means in every jump back to the past there is another version of Shane off wherever he was when Matt originally died. So, assuming that he is travelling to alternate universes when he time travels, when he popped out of the forest, there's still a version of him doing whatever he was originally doing. So that universe's version of Shane will hear of his brother's death in the woods...and maybe invents a time machine to prevent his brother's death. Or maybe there's only one Shane in the entire multiverse who created a time machine, so the Shane of each timeline he's in never hops into the past. On the other hand, if by going back into the past he is rewriting the events of his own timeline, then everything we saw has ceased to happen and there is no continuation of that timeline. This still means that there are two Shanes in the world during the events of the film. And the other Shane will still hear of Matt's death and invent a time machine to go save his brother who, at the end of the film, dies in a fire just like he originally did because Shane isn't going to make any changes from the original events of his life this time. So he winds up back in the universe he started in, except there are two of him. At least until Other Shane finishes his time machine and goes into the past, leaving Film Shane as the only one in that timeline. So the real question is, in the original events of Shane's life, was Shane's future self having breakfast with Matt on the morning of his death?

A couple of things to point out for people devising theories and bashing other peoples' devised theories: - Shane's brother has a pager, but pagers can be turned off especially if you call in to let them know you were calling off. This is something he mentions, as he says "Guess I'll call in sick." He never, however, in the rush, calls in, especially since his phone is dead from the spill. The spill only ruins the phone due to Shane moving it, as seen in the montage of his changes. If Shane doesn't move it, he can call in sick and take off. - Shane doesn't mention what he did for the first time he experienced the day. Therefore, the idea that "The ending is what happened on the first time this happened" is not factual. It's ambiguous. He is set up to be a character who is distant and not in his brother's life, so he very likely could have been across the state out of town and only heard about the death over the phone, before building the time watch to loop to try to fix it. At which point, having breakfast with Shane's brother could genuinely be a completely new thing. - There is no author written sheet saying "This is the purpose of the film." Your interpretation is equally valid as others', so the idea that "Well that defeats the purpose of the film" isn't truly a sensical thing to say, as your interpretation of the film's purpose can be different than others. For many, this is about learning to accept someone's death and ultimately about grief and mourning. For many, this is about the value of a listening ear and heart over attempts to solve problems and is ultimately about good communication and love. For others, this is about the inevitability of fate and the pointlessness of trying to escape it and is ultimately about destiny and acceptance. Your interpretation is only as valid as others, so to bash others' interpretations is to lessen the value your own holds. Don't be that person who makes their own words be worthless by claiming others' words are worthless.

A beautiful re-imagining of a classical tale from over a century ago: a scientist's wife dies, he invents a time machine to travel back and save her, she dies in another way. Every time he tries to save her from one kind of death, she dies some other way... until he realizes that her death gave him the motivation to build the time machine in the first place, so if the time machine exists it means she couldn't be saved, otherwise there would be no time machine.

U could see that he was was disheartened at the end but still smile through it because he wants his final moments with his brother to be memorable.

"Hey have you got time to stay for breakfast?" What an emotional ending. Death is fate, and can never be escaped. Shane knew that no matter what he could do, after 380 tries, his brother was destined to die. He accepted that, and made sure that for the time his brother had left, he would spend it with him, which is all his brother wanted. Shane quite literally goes through the stages of grief, trying over and over to save his brother... and by the end, he accepts the fate that his brother has been dealt... Imagine how strong you must be to simply let him go like that...

I really enjoyed this short film. It reminded me of the movie Time Machine (2002). I felt like the brother found out about his brother's demise and worked on a solution to go back in time to save him. Just like the movie, he only came up with the solution because of his brothers death. If his brother never died, he would have never came up with the solution to time travel. Time would never allow him to save his brother. I like the fact in the end after all his tries, he just took the time to spend time with his brother.

Incredible message. Make the most of the time you have with your friends and family - because death IS going to tear you apart , that is the only true certainty. The time you do have is never "perfect". There's always a reason to prioritise something else...and wind up yet another elderly person living in regret. I called my 77 year old father today. Just to say "hi". 30 minutes we talked of cartoons and guitars and world politics and of some good times, when Mum was alive... Finished with "I love ya, Dad" and, ""I love YOU, son". I could die OK, today.

Often because of differences in perspectives. Both brothers love each other, but don't know how to express it. And as a result, they end up hurting each other. But finally, by saying goodbye at the end, they achieve peace and understanding. And for one last time they share a "proper" meal together.
