Just watched this for the second time, and it holds up very well as a full and complete story. More indie films could learn from this and not leave you hanging at the end.
👍. That's right. Don't let or allow your emotions be wrecking your flow. To impair our common sense and logic of our judgment. Why,you ask? Because we're human (?). We're not robots. We're not perfect. NOBODY is! We don't live in a perfect world.

It was good enough in my book.
Great short film! I was hooked from beginning to end. I could honestly see this as a real sci-fi franchise. I know someone thought the acting in this was terrible but it's definitely way better acting than most home made films honestly. Great work once again. 10/10.
Very few shot scifi films get me hooked to watch from start to , this is one of those films . This was an awesome film and i wish it had been longer . Acting was great , story line was great hell the whole thing was perfect from start to finish
To all of the negative comments about the rifle. This was filmed in Canada. They have very strict gun laws. He can't carry a fully functional semiautomatic rifle. Get over it. It was a great video.
Canadians can still have a magazine in the rifle but it has to be pinned to accept 5 rounds. They also have access to prop guns for movies that look and feel like the real thing but are not capable of loading or firing a live round. So.. They could have been a bit more accurate on a prop that was very prominately displayed in the film.
Great film. The issue of the missing magazine is pointless. This is about people. And the actions and interactions were believable and well executed. Thank you!
Actually things missing like that make the whole thing seem cheap and take the immersion away. It also has a safety that he never disengages. Details matter if you want to tell a good story.
well done! Mark Kiazyk shared this with me on twitter this morning. I'll be sharing this for sure. I'm watching films everyday and I was hooked right from the start of this film. thank you!
That was so great! I've been binging short films the past week, I'm totally obsessed, but this is defo one of my favs. What made me love it so much was definitely the relationship between the two main protagonists.
Oni Chi, That's not exactly standard military doctrine; that's hollywood. Zig zag running just makes you a target for longer especially when you change direction.
The creator has achieved the unachievable in the portrayal of the bonding between a grown man and a beautiful young blonde girl with long hair, without any sexual connotations. In today's day and age, this is a most unusual event and the creators deserve a prize. One piece of lack of continuity regarding logistics is the night time scene when the girl holds a cindering twig as a weapon of defense, when she had been given a pistol and was walking around with it all day, carrying it in her right hand.
Beautiful. The acting was excellent and it was a lot of fun to watch. The compromise to fit the short film format was a good tradeoff though it could have been longer. I agree. Brilliant.
Really a well-done film. Very touching. I do wish we had some insight about the war and illness, but that's asking a lot for less than 20 minutes. Really triumphing film. One commenter was confused. They did not get that this did not entirely come from a place of linear time, I fear.
Really well done. It made you care about the characters quickly. Character development was smoothly done. At first he resented the woman and the girl because they represented their war being brought to where he was. Part of being a good man is an inclination to protect those less able than yourself. He saw that the little girl needed him and he stepped up and did what he could to help her. Good story telling in a short time. A+
Friend, I watch a lot of films from Dust, CG Brothers, Rakka and other independents, I like this style a lot, because they are short and objective, I'm addicted ha ha. I think that's why UA-cam recommended your channel. I loved these two films with this duo. Congratulations and thank you very much.
really? wow. and the beautiful cool things you noticed? am glad there was no mag with children on the set. anyway, what do i know? i'm just a noob. thanx for the great little flick, can't wait for a sequel!

As parents you can only hope your kids remember the stuff we say when they need it. Well done.

STAY CALM STAY FOCUSED STAY ALIVE....Wise words for us all ! Thanks
In Christ.
In reality. Leave religious claims elsewhere.
There’s no ship to save us from COVID 19. Christ hasn’t shown up either. Buckle up.

Superb is the word. Story, direction and music.
I love this young actress, I saw her in the short movie: The infected.
Cool👏👏👏
This is better than 99% of the crap that comes out of Hollywood these days. Nicely done.
couldn't get an Ak mag tho
Great short film! I was hooked from beginning to end. I could honestly see this as a real sci-fi franchise. I know someone thought the acting in this was terrible but it's definitely way better acting than most home made films honestly. Great work once again. 10/10.
you all saw the pop-up illuminated sight right ?? this is an electronic ak(xx) it shoots plasma bullets not copper lead hence no magazine required !!
normdoty lol i love it ak47s of the future shoots plasma rounds.
U right, maybe a little bit of new " make up" like more futuristic, is cheap details to do. 👍
Apparently no need to release the safety either. 🤣🤣🤣
But why make the future weapons look like AKM's, rubber Beretta trainers and Daisy Red Ryder BB guns?
Liked this very much, The guy didn't want to take the little girl and grew to not only to care for her but to depend on her help.
The girl's speech cadence elicited a great amount of empathy, which trumped all the directorial inaccuracies. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
This was so good and beautifully shot that you forget you are watching a short. Look forward to the next installment
The film left me wanting to see more. It would make a good feature. Good acting. Especially the young lady.
Looking forward to watching the sequil.
Very few shot scifi films get me hooked to watch from start to , this is one of those films . This was an awesome film and i wish it had been longer . Acting was great , story line was great hell the whole thing was perfect from start to finish
This was really good. Imagine what could be done with a larger budget and more time.
Sometimes I WISH I didn’t scroll down the comments first while watching the film 😂
Damn Josip. You got me. 1/3 way through and looking for spoilers lol
I do the same it's highly addictive, plus I prefer reading to watching films so it's great!!! Peace out
Brilliant short! Visually quite spectacular.
To all of the negative comments about the rifle. This was filmed in Canada. They have very strict gun laws. He can't carry a fully functional semiautomatic rifle. Get over it. It was a great video.
Agree...got to use what you have access to
Canadians can still have a magazine in the rifle but it has to be pinned to accept 5 rounds. They also have access to prop guns for movies that look and feel like the real thing but are not capable of loading or firing a live round.
So.. They could have been a bit more accurate on a prop that was very prominately displayed in the film.
They changed the laws when the aliens arrived......
Great film. The issue of the missing magazine is pointless. This is about people. And the actions and interactions were believable and well executed. Thank you!
Actually things missing like that make the whole thing seem cheap and take the immersion away. It also has a safety that he never disengages. Details matter if you want to tell a good story.
Far above average. Thank you for the vid.
a fun time...the girl was amazing...the guy made me laugh...there are bits of genius within> Cant wait for more.
..he didn't need to make her feel bad..when her Momma just killed.
Enjoyable short film and so good work
Really liked that. Well done and thank you for a great short story.
Stay calm. Stay focused. Stay alive
Thank you all.
Good story! Acting and writing great. Thanks, Paul Plett! Hope to see more from you soon!
well done! Mark Kiazyk shared this with me on twitter this morning. I'll be sharing this for sure. I'm watching films everyday and I was hooked right from the start of this film. thank you!
Great! I love happy endings, specially for kids.
The guy has a magic AK. It shoots without a magazine attached. Amazing.
A stellar performance by your young actress. she's done this before, hasn't she?
your guns are weird.
Good luck with the sequel
That was so great! I've been binging short films the past week, I'm totally obsessed, but this is defo one of my favs. What made me love it so much was definitely the relationship between the two main protagonists.
@@OdeProductions awesome! Can't wait to see it.
This is one of the better films that I have seen. Except for the glaring error of the AK-47 with no mag. Good acting, good story line.
I really enjoyed this film, can't wait to see more from you!
Suffice to say, way better than most films of the same genre in Hollywood
Some of these shorts are very very good
Wish this one was.
I definitely agree with you
I've got a friend who does short films
good film, and has a moral.
Thank YOU Paul Plett for your excellent work.
I love the girl !! Good story
that was really good, thanks for the upload
Always zigzag when running ...when there's shooting. Good storytelling :)
Oni Chi, That's not exactly standard military doctrine; that's hollywood. Zig zag running just makes you a target for longer especially when you change direction.
I love it - thats what makes a good Film even without many Specialeffects - Intelligent Characters and Charisma - Get on with that Stuff Please!
Great film! *****
Brilliantly plotted. Slow steady revealment. Good acting and superb cinematography.
That was awesome!
Stay calm. Stay focused. Stay alive :-) Thanks
@@OdeProductions Thank you...you are always welcome :-)

Dam SCABS!! GOOD SHOT GIRL!!!,WHEN NEXXT SEQUEL!!!??!!🌻
Excellent :) This deserves some major funding to produce as a much larger Hollywood movie.
Very good!
Beautiful! Great short.
That was excellent! So often the shorts are exactly that: short on plot, short on depth and very short on resolution.
This was a giant of a short!
well done,great story and acting,lets see more!
What an excellent short film. Excellent storyline, acting, & filming. Bravo 👍🏾
Pretty darn good .. hits the right nerves and emotions.
Mr. Plett, you did a great job.
Wow. Lovable characters. Good acting. Considering low budget challenges it is a great short. Good camera work and cut as well. Thank you guys
beautiful short with really great suspense. the short sci fi got me addicted lately, i grew to enjoy them more than long hollywood flicks. kudos 👍
Very well done!
great film. With begining, middle and end, unlike many shorts
Wow! Really good!
The missing AK-47 magazine is just bugging me if it was a futuristic weapon it wouldn't look like it currently does
Very good story! But, I guess the firearms are a futuristic mod that turns toy guns into energy weapons. ;)
Awesome!
Is that space ship , really a lamp shade from Ikea?
I was thinking this:
Producer/Director: what do we do for the ship?
Tecnical director: hm...how about an upside down birthday cake!
P/D: Genius!
jim davis lol thanks
We are Devo.
jim davis Not all spaceships are saucer shaped.
Looks like it...or a chandelier is what I thought.
They made it work...good little actress
I have built that chandelier in Fallout 4.
The girl who played Lex was the best actor in this.
Excellent!!!
Niiiice
Outstanding short hope to see more from you
One of the nicer shorts i have seen, well done
Well, clicked on a good one. Thanks.
Better than half the movies on NetFlix.
Well done!!!

Would like to see more films like this.
NIce story, well directed and well acted - enjoyed watching it THUMBS UP!
Keep on KEEPING ON never ever give up. GOD made you for a reason. Fight til then. MAY GOD walk with all of you. GOD bless you and your family.
It's nice to think so, isn't it?
If you look at what actually happens in this world, this wishful thinking is laid bare as the fantasy that it is.
Excellent!

Really? No mag on the set? AK's won't fire without a mag, and, mags don't load themselves, so, what's your point.
Didn't seem long enough... maybe I'm getting old
Many of these are throwbacks to we old SF readers of the 60s & early 70s
Superb story telling. Kudos.
Nicely done.
Very nice X
It was a long time since I really enjoyed this much a sci fi short. Well done ,very well done. Some big names should learn from You.
Loved it...thank you..
Good short story and half decent acting. Not over the top, some minor prop mistakes and the like but entertaining. Thanks!
Sure would love to see this in a movie. This is kind of like Lost and Walking Dead combined.
At last, a story with some hope. Thank you.
Very good movie 👏👏👏👏
I’ll be watching this again 😎
Thank you!!!!!!
Texas
nicely done. terrific actors
the guy was actually pretty good in my opinion !
and the girl was adorable
Very good this - Much Appreciated thank you
The ak without the mag hurts me
5 star.............
You are welcome sir.... Please bring more like this!...
It didn't quite make sense but a lot of short fillms don't. This was better than most.
this is beautiful, i like the story
Good job. As some point out it has its flaws, but it's also a touching story and very nicely structured. Easy to believe in their world. Make more!
I write Science Fiction. If your life is sad then write happy stories. This story has too much sadness and stress.
