Synopsis

When Levi, an enforcer for a small time criminal faces a personal and professional crisis, his life coils into surveillance and insanity. After a failed execution attempt at the hands of unknown assailants, Levi spends winter recovering in the home of his mother who is simultaneously recovering in the hospital. When Levi receives an ominous voicemail it is clear the life he is living cannot continue. The little security he has is threatened and he flees society to start a new life in the woods. He finds himself reborn until a sense of surveillance creeps back in. When Levi is confronted by a volunteer scout leader, he proves it was simply his environment that had changed not his character. After Levi descends into old ways he returns to the city finding himself in familiar company. It isn't long before old enemies return to finish the unfinished. Levi delves deeper into the woods where the fragility of his psyche is fully realised. He finds he cannot outrun himself .

Director: Matt Green

Year: 2026

Darla arrives home early hoping to surprise her fiancé Richard; only to catch him butt-naked, clad in a VR headset, with a fleshlight pumping on his crotch, making sweet digital-love to whoever is on the receiving end of the virtual exchange. Distraught, embarrassed and heartbroken; their perfect life begins to crumble when Darla discovers that the recipient of the internet-affair turns out to be an AI anthropomorphic cat avatar in a 3-D sex-dungeon! In the midst of this very precarious and relationship-defining situation (and just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse); Darla’s overbearing parents arrive at the apartment…. to talk about the wedding. Cue a series of increasingly awkward events, as Richard and Darla try to keep up appearances, hashing it out behind the scenes, as the shame and secrets threaten to spill over to the in-laws; culminating in a first dance you’ll never forget and an interesting choice in hand cream.
