Want more DUST? Check out the latest short film "LIMBO" and get lost with us: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fqionKihrrO3gY0.html One man's search for his kidnapped daughter causes his reality to unravel.

"Ada, how many living beings are on the ship?" "Trillions." "Okay, minus bacteria, how many living beings are on the ship?" "Two."

"I cannot explain" "I dont know" Was this Assistant designed by Apple by chance?

"Thanks for taking care of me" Whole new meaning of the phrase holy shit.

This was incredible! Only 6 mins in felt like I’d been watching for hours, was so caught up in the plot. That’s genius! To be able to capture attention, create suspense and tell a whole story in 16:30 is amazing. Excellent short!

If I learned anything from the movies it's that when someone's dead you have to do CPR by vigorously punching them in the chest while yelling "Nooo damn it, come back!!!"

Me: ok one last dust video Me 2 hours later: ok this one is definitely the last

*Philip was not The Imposter.* *1 Imposter remains.*

Ok so heres how it happened as I understood it They were travelling faster than light while they were in hyperlight (which in theory is, that their time is going backwards but the causal of things still play out as normal time. This is how Relativity plays out. For them, time is still running forward but an outside observer sees their time running backwards) So the 1st Solis arrived there, sent out a distress signal, which was picked up by the 2nd Solis (which was still in backwards time, inside the hyperlight). The difference of the one outside of the hyperlight and the one inside it is 2 hours. In essence it was like "they arrived there 2 hrs before they were actually there". Its like sending a telephone call from the future them to be picked up by their past themselves. So back to the normal time. The first Solis is intact but then Emiliana was killed as per the guy's statement. Which made him alive and Emiliana dead in that ship. The second Solis arrived but for some reason it exploded and as protocol, the computer sent them out into space. Emiliana saves herself and her Phillip and went aboard the first Solis where only Philip was alive. Since the 2 Philips are in the same time line, only the one in normal time is awake and the other one was in a state of superposition (dead and alive at the same time) Only when she killed the future Philip did time collapse to create the reality in which both people were alive There was no time loop but a "wrinkle in time". When the first Solis was supposed to have a part of it exploded (which killed Emiliana and kept Philip alive) the second Solis picked up the same event in time but played out a different future. In that future, Emiliana and Philip survived while their ship did not. The future Philip (alive) and the present Philip (in superposition) existed on the same timeline. As long as the future Philip is alive, the other Philip will be in a state of superposition because his version of the future should be different from the other. Only when the future Philip was killed that the wrinkle it time was ironed out. Its as if the other future did not exist at all.

Imagine if the first thing he said after waking up was "You killed me."

Dust should start a movie industry and call it dustwood or so because they are coming better than hollywood all movie production sets

This is absolutely one of the best films I have ever watched in my entire life. I was hooked right from the beginning - the scenery, storytelling, the bravery and skill in saving Maeda and getting to the ship - Emiliana's acting was fantastic. The incredible Sci-fi twist of two realities being unable to co-exist and the dreadful decision she made. This is simply an absolute masterpiece!!!

"I'm ok because I'm dead." pretty much sums up how I feel sometimes.

I’m happy to have found DUST. I hope that by simply watching and giving a thumbs up somehow supports these independent filmmakers. I realize making even short films is very time consuming and expensive. I really appreciate the talent and effort put into these productions and feel fortunate to be able to see them at all. It’s like having an Indie film festival in my bedroom. Thank you.

when a 16 min clip on you tube has more atmosphere, plot and better acting that the last multi million dollar RS movie... XD Subscribed

I think the movie shows that humans can be even colder and more calculating than the machines. Everyone is wondering why Ada is such a lame voice assistant, but actually Ada was more human than Emilianna giving her a warning before she sent Philip into the space. And looking how Emilianna hugs him in the end, I am pretty sure she would take another scary rational decision, if the situation changes. Philip is never safe with this girl.

What a brilliant film! You all deserve a full-length theatrical release. Congratulations on fantastic work. Thank you.

Halfway through the film "I cannot explain this discrepancy, Emiliana..." started sounding a whole lot like "I'm sorry but I cannot do that, Dave..."

"Honey, do you love me?" "Of course I do, I would even kill for you. In fact I would even kill you, for you."Very interesting exploration.

We need to give the creators the Hollywood budget for their works. Truly stellar and deserving.

they really missed the opportunity by not showing this afterwards: the guy and girl begin working on the ship to fix it and the girl goes outside and gets killed by an explosion outside the ship which forces the guy to put out the distress call again and then they show up to rescue them and the whole cycle happens again as the guy doesnt know what happened before he woke up

Guy wakes up. Eda: "Philip, Amelia killed you".

I have found this channel like 3 days ago. Thank you so much!! You rock. The films are better than most new Netflix and films out there at the cinema. I also like the short format. Brilliant acting, good plots and storylines, surprisingly good special effects.

This is so good that it could actually be a viable TV show, whether as a serious SciFi story, or just the misadventures of a daydreamer, I think it has the potential to be a great series! I loved it, not only because my youngest daughter is called Melody, who is a daydreamer ("Focus, Melody!?") and I would love her to follow in my footsteps and play guitar, but also because when she was 2 yrs old and we got her a toy kitchen and she would ask "what would you like?" to which the only reply she would accept was "soup". Above all, I loved this, because the acting, timing, directing, production, FX and humour were absolutely spot on!

They got her drinking a Capri Sun like we wouldn't notice

"Thanks for taking care of me", nice double entendre

I've had this video in my watch later for like three years. I finally watched it.

I discovered Dust today, and I already feel lucky to have found it! what a spectacular quality. And still with subtitles in Portuguese, new subscriber and congratulations to those involved, showing that 16 minutes are more than millionaire and poorly made films... thank you

Okay, this is my best guess at what is going on here... someone tell me if I'm even close. I think it was the broken down ship that actually traveled in time. That is why Phil was shocked to hear the date and time. Emeliana's 2 hour difference, however, lines up pretty well with the "current" time. So, that means the first ship had a malfunction that not only brought them out of FTL but also sent them back in time. They send out a signal which by pure coincidence is picked up by themselves prior to breaking down, etc. That earlier version picks up the signal and heads to the broken down ship. When they get into proximity of the other ship, the same matter in/near the same space takes effect with the older ship (the broken down one) getting "priority". This causes the younger ship to malfunction and explode... but not before their pods can be ejected by the computer. The explosion kills the older Emeliana which wakes the younger one up in the pod. She rescues her Phil. Once on the ship it becomes clear what has happened. When she goes to do repairs she discovers that the ship isn't going anywhere. They are pretty much stranded there for what will probably be an extremely long time. This leaves Emeliana with a hard choice. Leaving her Phil in a coma state isn't realistic. It wastes resources and... well, he has no hope of ever recovering as long as the older Phil is still near and alive. And we know she doesn't see the older Phil as being "her" Phil by the way she comforts him on his loss of "his" Emeliana. So, she makes the hard choice to kill him so she can get her Phil back. Once she does that, they basically just live out their lives on the ship until hopefully they some day get rescued. Btw, there is no time "loop" or anything like that. They basically just created a kind of rewrite of the timeline. Some might see it as a paradox. However, if you view time travel as just you moving from your reality to an alternate past reality, then altering yourself in that past would have no actual effect on you personally... it would just alter the normal course of the alternate reality version of you.

"He's going to find out", an intriguing statement.

High quality, well acted, great storied sci-fi short films... This might just be the best channel I've ever subscribed to on KZfaq.

One of the best films I've seen on Dust so far! Both actors do a great job, well directed and the CGI and real life material blends perfectly. I got sucked in almost instantly and stayed hooked the whole way through. I sure hope you people get the chance to direct something longer (or perhaps that happened already since I just noticed you released this in '18 already). Anyway, thanks again! 👍

I am just so impressed by this. I mean wow not a major studio or anything like that? And the acting, Yay! Makes such a difference when everyone is fully committed. Thank you for that amazing escape. I'd love another adventure or continuing adventure with these two.

Please don't let those big corporations destroy this beautiful channel, 1M Great Job.

Love these little vignettes, they're the video equivalent of the kind of one-dilemma short stories that dominated vintage "hard" science fiction writing.

i am so pleased i found DUST a couple of months ago, unbelievably great sci-fi shorts on this channel.

Ada, why I can't quit watching first Sci-Fi Short Film every time I open youtube? Ada: I cannot explain this discrepancy

Every shot is impressive....CGI is damn...every shot has suspense...looks like high budget film..

I've only seen 5 and a half minutes of this, and I'm well impressed. Bravo to the bunch.

"I cannot explain this discrepancy." --- is my next favorite line to say when there's a bug in my code commit. 🤣🤣

More action in 15 mins than most modern 2 hour sci-fi movies! Superb!

Me: Siri what im watching? Siri: I have no idea i cannot explain

Can I just say. Some of your short films are outstanding. I truly hope you would go the full hog & produce full fledged movies. Like one regarding the FTL Singularity. Truly outstanding!

Philip: "Uh, can you explain that floating Philip out there?" Amelia: "I cannot explain this discrepancy."

It’s amazing how much more imaginative your productions are than the swill that’s in theaters these days. Congratulations on the efforts of your hard work.

This was great. Classic OG sci fi with a modern treatment. Excellent actors, writing, directing, soundtack, everything.

I've seen 8 dust short films in the last few weeks. I hope theres many more to watch. I'm HOOKED !

*Excellent* ... _I didn't see that coming._ When she said, "We're going to be here a long, long time." Realization hit me like a cold wash over my face! *I enjoyed this one very much.* Thank you. 😊

If enjoyed this short, make sure to check out Nguyen-Anh Nguyen's other DUST short film 'Temple' - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sNicZ8xlzNSlgYE.html

DUST's first feature film PROSPECT is now available on demand in the US & Canada Google Play: bit.ly/Prospect-Google-Play iTunes: apple.co/2qNYKUA

Me: "Ada explain the events of 2020" Ada : " I cannot explain this discrepancy."

Superb acting, and set design, and graphics, it all felt very real. Also, kudos for a tense plot without a monster (and I love a good monster).

Twist! He activates a distress beacon, she ends up outside, and their ship is destroyed by the next ship showing up and the cycle starts over.

These videos get millions of views but barely have 2 million. They are so underrated and deserve more attention

The acting in this short was incredible, suspenseful and felt believable.

What a situation, you arrive answering your own distress signal only to find only one of you can truely exist. Excellent actors playing the frightening situation so well. Bravo 👏👏👏

THESE SHORT STORIES ARE INCREDIBLE AND WE LOVE WATCHING THEM!! ... KEEP THEM COMING!!

I have yet to watch a Dust production that isn't top notch. Well done.

Excellent on all levels. Deserves to be a full-length film.

Now I consider myself lucky to have missed all the Dust vids... I get something really good to watch during the lockdowns. :D

I just found "DUST" and I kid you not the past 2 1/2 hrs I've been binge watching all these videos. Some I truly wish were full movies amazing quality!

Loved the female lead!!! She was fantastic! Great short film!! 💙💙💙

I have watched this several times now. I just simply adore this film. The actors did AMAZING as did the whole staff.

"Ada, what happened?" "I'm afraid I can't do that, Dave..."

I thought this was going to end with them sending out a distress signal and the woman going out on a space walk to try and fix things, starting the loop all over again :)

These short films are little vacations for the mind thank you for these!

I thought my volume was off/broke on my headphones in the beginning 😆

*_”How many people are on the ship?”_* *_2_* *_”How many living beings are on the ship?”_* *_2_* *_Literally got goosebumps xd_*

As a Filmmaker and producer, these shorts are bold and dare to be different, pushing our imagination to the outer limits.

That hug in the end tho… straight to the bum lol

I actually got tricked into think that she was okay with the actively alive guy, and I had ideas of aliens taking over the corpse/inactive man. Then puff - the actual ending I wasn't expecting and blew my mind - lol. Good film piece and story.

5:22 Yaaaaaaay!!! Capri Sun's still exist in 2103!!!

This is a really well done short film on every level. As I watched, I was riveted by the realistic character(s) and the events they are contending with. After the fact, I'm impressed as hell by the economy with which the team accomplished beginning, middle, and end of the action.

I must have watched 80 or 90 DUST shorts by now and THAT was by FAR The Best. ... rivetting, excellent acting and effects.

One of the best sci fi movies Ive ever seen, period. Ive watched this 5 times already over years. The gotcha is its 16 min and it doesn't need to be a minute longer its already prefect.

Where do they get the budget for ones like this? Fantastic!

Thank you DUST! Finally a source for scifi worth watching.

I hope to see both these actors in other shorts, they're both phenomenal.

They are trapped on a loop. Están atrapados en un bucle. GENIAL.

In space you only need 1 thrust, stop burning fueling when you're already moving! DERP

Great job! Very impressed. I was immersed the whole way through.

His heart is not beating but his eyes are moving, nice.

The acting was superb. This short film was super high quality with the look and feel of a big-budget studio feature. Very impressive!

Wow. The opening scene with the escape pods floating out in space over the planet was very cool. If you have ever been in an MRI machine, you know how it feels to be in something like that. I did not know i was claustrophobic till i had to go into one. Like a coffin! I lasted about 20 seconds and had to abort. No can do. Thank God they make open side ones now that are not nearly as bad. You have not experienced unreasoning fear till you see a wall 2" from your face for an extended period. The nurse told me 1 out of 5 refuse to go in them by this unreasoning fear. Stranger still, mostly men more than women are affected. I had a job as a foreman taking asbestos off steam generators at a nuclear power plant and had a man freak out because he had on a full paper suit and respirator. I had to hold him down to keep him from ripping his mask off in a confined space full of dust. He completely lost it. We rushed him up the ladder just in time. I can tell you i could not go into one of those rescue buoys that confining. I would rather perish where i can have full body movement first. No kidding. They need to make the pods like in Star Wars when the droids ejected. Nice and big and round and airy! Those coffin shaped ones? No way no how!

That Mole deserve an origin movie by itself.

Just AWESOME ! Two souls stuck in a time-loop. Very Well made short ! Female lead kinda reminds me of the 1st ''Dax'' on 'ST-DS9'. This film goes beyond of ''Live, Die, Repeate''.

Phillip: "Thanks for taking care of me." Me: Hahahahaha! Ya, she took care of you alright. She sure did.

A rather twisted sort of love story in space! Premise was good. Cinematography, acting, props, etc.. all good. I liked it!

I posted a comment lately about the abandonment of good audio engineers in these movies. I really like the movies, it opens up my mind and feeds my creativity tank when seeing this. But the audio is always an unprotected child in this genre, even when it's the most important part of this genre. It makes the environment, dialogues, daily sounds and the setting as a whole work and move. This movie did that exactly, nailed it. And yes that pleases me. So thank you sound engineers for doing you part! And producers, for letting them.

A very good film. Extraordinary in so many philosophical, emotional ways. All the best. Thank you.

This actress is incredible! I also love the CG you guys integrated!!!

At last!!! This is the short seen in Blackmagicdesign's Resolve artwork. And now I know "the rest of the story". And's been worth the wait. Thank you, DUST!

Thank you dust for excellent short films,you are a joy!

Superb actors! Hope to see more of them in other productions. The plot was more suspenseful than an *Alfred Hitchock* film!!! KUDOS to all involved. WE WANT MORE!!!

She did what she had to -- as long as the other version of him survived, the ship was in flux between the two time lines with neither one able to assert. Once he is dead they have a chance to survive.

This is meant as a sincere compliment. Many of the scenes had the look and feel of a well-done, well-paced graphic novel. This needs a follow-up episode badly. Any plans?

Highly imagine shorts. Saw the "Dust" clips on cable. Very creative. Thank you.

Phillip: "Thanks for taking care of me" Emilia: (I took care of you alright)

This was excellent from beginning to end - well acted, well produced, a good logical story - SciFi short story of the finest !!! 🌟🌟🌟
