OXV: The Manual

Synopsis

In a world that is not quite here and not quite now, a young boy (Isaac-Newton) and girl (Marie-Curie) meet. However, in this world this simple fact should not be possible. In this world human FREQUENCY has been discovered. If you are high frequency, you are born lucky – you will have natural ‘timing’ and always be in the right place at the right time. If you are low frequency every natural law will conspire against you.

Marie is super-high frequency, Zak is ultra-low. Nature should ensure that they never cross paths. Yet they do. Every year they get to spend exactly one minute together before nature dramatically intervenes.

Over the years it becomes an obsession for Zak to change his frequency and be with Marie. What he discovers may allow him to realize his dream, but will change everything we know about ourselves and our destinies, forever.

Popcorn Popcorn

Director: Darren Paul Fisher

Year: 2006

Too insecure to approach the girl of his dreams, Danny takes a job at the local multiplex where she works, only to find out that his first day is her last. After some spectacular early failures he resorts to drastic action by enlisting the help of the chief projectionist, a guru-like figure who unfortunately no longer sees any difference between real life and reel life. This is cinema - but not as you know it.
