Sand Castle

2018 · 7 min

A quiet, contemplative short that feels like a fireside parable, gently puzzling over why we might choose to leave progress behind.

Science fiction
Overview
In an undefined future where mankind have voluntarily abandoned technology to live back in nomadism, an old man initiates a kid to the reasons of humanity’s return to nature. Apparently teleportation had something to do with it.

Melancholic, earnest and eerie. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
