Finally a short SF short movie not only well acted or directed, but also with a true idea, a plausible plot and a well defined conclusion. A little masterwork, a must see.
Staredsky, this is a very good film, however, the book part makes it not plausible. He did not write the book he copied it. My question would be where did the book come from.
@@bossboss-xd6dd Also, the formula came from his blood, and was put into his blood by the injector, which was researched from the compound put into his blood by the injector, which was researched...
This ranks as an “A” movie. If all science fiction movies had the tenets of this shorty, there would be so many more great sci-fi movies. Outstandingly well done! Kudos to all that made this movie!
I’m not a big fan of the time travel and multiple demensional genres. But like the man who is searching for the answer to his return to mortality in this film. My search for a Dust short with a storyline that didn’t leave me hanging with questions at the end has finally been found!
Why good ? because: 1) until the end you cannot understand the next scene, mystery until last minute 2) absence of violence, but still a good movie for the average person of this era 3) well mixing of new and old costumes, like medieval time and modern era 4) plot of a men that gives his blood for the "humankind pain relief" sounds an old story, but still actual ... 5) cast high level 6) sounds high level 7) camera high level it could be nice to see more movies like this in cinema halls ... Good job !
This is absolutely, the best short I have ever had the privilege to watch. I have been made smaller and yet , instilled with the possibilities that are to come. Thank you. TII
Absence of violence? Guy stabbed in eye. Guy tries to rob possibly rape girl. Plane crashes everyone dies except main character. I would say relatively little violence.
i have watched nearly every sci-fi short film on UA-cam, & this one really stands out! The story, acting, mystery, music, etc... its is excellently done , one of the best i have seen! Great job A+
You must not have anything else to do with and in your life except to watch junk Sci-Fi short films. Man, don't you know junk movies when to see it? This is trash of the first order.
I am SERIOUSLY impressed, this is one of the better "short" sci-fi movies I've seen for quite some time. Well done to the original team who made this movie.
this is one of the examples where you can see that the short films on youtube are definetly better than some of the million dollar blockbusters! This is an awesome film! And it's the best "Awesome Film" i'd ever seen! Thumbs up
This was such a great story. Brought a tear to my eye in the end when the old man realized he was the one to set future events in motion to help mankind. Very cool movie. Very well done!
man, i am so glad i didn't give up on it because of the subtitles at the beginning. this was awesome. great story, solid acting, just an all around good film. the only complaint i have, is that it wasn't longer. this would make an interesting tv series.
Wow, I felt like I was watching a movie that was an hour and 50 minutes long this short film is incredible. It is great, I couldn't believe how put togther this film is you get everything you need in this short film. Excellent work!
This is one of the best sci-fi shorts I've seen on UA-cam. No, let me correct that. THE best. Acting, dialogue, cinematography, pacing, sets, wardrobe, etc., all believable and absorbing in support of a great plot. Kudos.
This was beyond all doubt the best short film I have ever seen and is better than nearly every film I have ever seen in theaters. If only this was a full length feature, I'd pay money to see this on the big screen.
Holy cow why wasn't this in theaters?? Amazing in every sense of the word. Had me enthralled with characters and costumes and settings and time and just wow. Everything is spot on. A must see!
Well, Mr. Penna, I have seen many time travel sequencers. This one is unique for not having the usual over and over jumps to tidy countless events up. Of course, they all have substantial narratives to final conjunctions. Truly remarkable for its passage and meaning behind. A piece of art, bravo...
That was a well-filmed, well-put-together story. I personally found it very entertaining and thought-provoking. My only disappointment after watching it is that... I wish there was more to it. Very nicely done. Keep up the great work.
Brilliance. Absolute Brilliance. Joe Penna, you need to become an actual director, because this movie could easily be shown in theaters. I'd love to see it there.
This has to be one of the best shorts I have ever seen. You took two hours worth of feature film quality story and did an excellent job of compressing it into 41 minutes. Nothing was lost, from the writing of the story to the acting and filming this was a class A job. Well done to your whole team.
I first saw this years ago and loved it immediately. I rewatch it every so often - skipping or fast forwarding through nothing - because of how good it is. It ranks as one of my all time favorite short films and I could not be happier with how well it was made. The story is astounding, compelling to watch and full of suspense, and is absolutely a thrill even though its direction and destination is no longer a mystery to me. The story flows smoothly and answers the questions it sets up neatly. There are story threads that receive no follow up, but that is a product of good storytelling. You care about other characters and are interested in where they go, but you don't need to see the end of their journeys. I love things like this that are static and stand-alone. It's a story that you can enjoy and finish without being left wanting. It ends with a greater sense of completion than almost everything else I've ever seen. To me, it is greater than many full-length feature films on the market today. I would have gladly paid to see it a dozen times over.
This was a beautiful story that left me full in a way most Hollywood films don't. It didn't need explosions, long, running battle-scenes or pointless "romance" thrown in to keep the hormonal guys engaged. Forgive me but SPOILERS AHEAD (well, some little, some larger): The romance was taken care of with the sweet "Highlander" styled clip of the Immortal and the French girl with no fuss, no sloppy cringe-worthy kisses, just a plain, hello-meeting under a tree and her quiet, poignant passing in their home. The quiet note of his continuance of his ancient tradition of the yearly tattoos slowly creeping up his arm, then continuing to his other arm was a nice touch. When he realizes that there really was no villain at all, and that his own very existence was needed as a boon to humanity was gorgeous. The girl gaining that odd ability from her cure for her palsy was a strange twist and makes me wonder if other people will be experiencing similar effects. All in all, a lovely little film.
This was well written, directed and acted. A real plot with no evasive undermining of the outcome. Direct and to the point with nothing but one conclusion. Bravo to the cast, to the author and all the staff who made a well rounded story of time.
I watched it with French subtitles and it's French, but just the literal word for word translation. Some of it doesn't make much sense because the wrong definition of a word was used or the expression wasn't properly translated. It's probably best not to have subtitles than to have them like this. But the film is very well done.
First, totally captivating: the story, the characters, the whole execution of this work. Second, time travel stories usually get so convoluted and never work themselves out in such a satisfying way as this one. I love this film!
You need more funding so you can make even better longer movies like this one. This could easily have been a very successful 2hour long movie if you had the backing of a wealthy company to fund it. All in all 10/10
I can't wait to see more short films like this. WOW I am finding it difficult to express my positive thoughts about this film, the creators really have a greater view of our purpose here on earth.
I have come back to watch this film so many times every single year since release, still so amazing. I really admire the work of Joe Penna, and how he can create all of this with such a small budget. Really well done :D
Awesome really, great film, when i start seeing i couldn't take my eyes of the screen for 1 second completely awesome good job guys this is a outstanding short film way better that many movies of big companies, completely amazing great job to you all, that many more like this one can be done guys good luck you have all that you need to success :) i watch the film from Portugal and the part that i liked more has when he realized that it was him that started all and was with peace with him self, but i kinda that imagine that something like that would happen Thank you all for creating and developing this perfect short film BEYOND its a completely perfect short film it has that a real film needs, great job
wow! Awmazing movie, brilliant acting, a great story and would love to see more, this needs to be a series where he chases after what that book is really about, maybe the 2 of them team up and save the universe etc, such potentials! Great work, love these short movies, theya re so much better than all that hollywood crap!
An ageless Bruce Willis. . . Okay, even with my quip, this was one of the best movies (short or long) I have ever seen!!! It actually made me think in a similar way I did with the movie, "Arrival", but even more in depth. I'm really wowed by it.
I haven’t adequate words... this is epic - a complete movie in so few minutes - everything was top-notch, from acting to audio, to the fantastic plot. Bravo!
This was a very long " Short" film but wonderfully put together and had lots of story line changes to keep you enthralled but by the end you get it. So different to anything I have watched before. So glad I got to see this one, Thank You.
e ae Joe ainda ninguém quis legendar seus videos? esse é mais um que eu não verei pois meu ingles é pessimo e não irei entender bem o Filme.....joga no tiwtter e ve se alguém se habilita a lhe ajudar....eu não posso pois não conseguiria isso....estou aguardando ansioso pois fico trsite de perder conteudo novo seu....abraços
Well, put together as a full-encompassing story without the flaws of a storyline that you would have not imagined... Now that is what makes this story with the actor being the storyteller as truly great!
A line of monks tattooing each other in a circle until the last who by the order has the most lines, each line represents a type of calendar mark reminds me of the people who paint the Golden Gate Bridge by starting at one end and at the end of a year they are done with the bridge and have to start over in terms of significance I would guess the bridge is the more important.....either pointless of significant you be the judge I guess?
Without violence? How about the attack on the young woman in a dark alley? It was possibly just a purse theft, but they made it unnecessarily seem like an attempted rape. Perhaps this is something that Hollywood has made us numb to, but it's still gratuitous violence. Asking the woman to wear those ridiculous stilettos was also superfluous. Overall I thought the movie was entertaining although a bit obtuse with respect to psychology and verisimilitude.
This was fantastic... the first piece of entertainment I've seen in years that gave me hope that there are still some people who can create.. thank you for giving this to the world
I like how he starts off as a pupil of Benedict of Nursia, at Monte Cassino... where he finds a "mysterious" auto-injector; Then his story extends through the ages. The Byzantine era, feudal France, etc. My earliest judgements of this whole film were that it posed a major question: Would you want to be immortal/mortal..? That decision is a "double-edged blade" Overall, a good story to me.!. :D (Btw, I understand the references because I research ALOT of things... mainly history.)
+Ben Skelly It depends on meaning, purpose and context of life and/or perception of eternity. Immortality in a fallen world be unfulfilling. Immortality in an unbroken and untainted world, would always be enough.
Immortality would indeed be a curse. Hell, a 300-year lifespan would be enough to be torturous. This is a topic most have never taken the time to investigate properly. Intuitively, it naively and narcissistically strikes us with a sense of "sure! why not!?" But plenty of philosophers and deep-thinkers have thoroughly evaluated such scenarios and, spoiler alert, our instincts are massively wrong. Spend 15 minutes reading about it and you'll know quickly come to grips with just how fucked such a situation would be.
Something you and "plenty of philosophers and deep-thinkers" have no category from which to make any valid conclusions.I would say "speak for yourself", but in your limited humanity, you cannot.
Jason Gabler In your limited humanity you have failed to understand that I was speaking for myself. It's got to be hard though making sense of things when carrying around so much narcissism. You'll be free of the burden soon enough.
This was incredible. Very moving and eye opening. I got the message that Sometimes we have to stop allowing intense feelings of anger dictate our lives because while we are engulfed in that fog - we miss out on all of the bigger picture. Letting such rage create tunnel vision, eats away at the human soul - it is a taker of free will and positive energy until the only thing that remains is a hollowed out heart driven by a passion for revenge. Once we find the strength to put those malicious intentions to the side - we can gain clarity like we never knew & we can learn things that may suprise us. Mental/ emotional/ spiritual Clarity can have the power to open doors we overlooked in anger....the same doors that ultimately allow our broken souls closure & the chance to rectify wrongs.
WOW! I'm seriously impressed. Fantastic story, well-written, well-acted, directed, and shot. A small cinematic masterpiece hiding in the corners of UA-cam.
Finally a short SF short movie not only well acted or directed, but also with a true idea, a plausible plot and a well defined conclusion. A little masterwork, a must see.
staredsky it ties up the time travel stuff very well also.
Staredsky, this is a very good film, however, the book part makes it not plausible. He did not write the book he copied it. My question would be where did the book come from.
@@bossboss-xd6dd Yeah!
Not the worst paradox I've ever seen.
@@bossboss-xd6dd
Also, the formula came from his blood, and was put into his blood by the injector, which was researched from the compound put into his blood by the injector, which was researched...
When you're riveted to the screen for the entire duration, you know the story is of the highest quality.
Absolutely superb.
This ranks as an “A” movie. If all science fiction movies had the tenets of this shorty, there would be so many more great sci-fi movies. Outstandingly well done! Kudos to all that made this movie!
too boring
I’m not a big fan of the time travel and multiple demensional genres. But like the man who is searching for the answer to his return to mortality in this film. My search for a Dust short with a storyline that didn’t leave me hanging with questions at the end has finally been found!
Why good ?
because:
1) until the end you cannot understand the next scene, mystery until last minute
2) absence of violence, but still a good movie for the average person of this era
3) well mixing of new and old costumes, like medieval time and modern era
4) plot of a men that gives his blood for the "humankind pain relief" sounds an old story, but still actual ...
5) cast high level
6) sounds high level
7) camera high level
it could be nice to see more movies like this in cinema halls ...
Good job !
This is absolutely, the best short I have ever had the privilege to watch.
I have been made smaller and yet , instilled with the possibilities that are to come.

P
Wish this was a full length feature film. Excellent! Wanted it to continue.
You must not have anything else to do with and in your life except to watch junk Sci-Fi short films.
Man, don't you know junk movies when to see it? This is trash of the first order.
+Kathy Lynne
There are cheese haters and there are cheese lovers.
40 minutes of incredibly well-orchestrated sci-fi drama. I'm blown away. And on UA-cam nonetheless!
Whow, nothing else to say....
Well fucking put!

Wow, I was thinking the same thing and then I came along to your comment. Hmm.
On so many levels, this 41 minute SciFi is one of loveliest I have ever seen.
Did not expect to watch all of this.. Amazing work. Kept me glued to the screen.
Thank you! This is my favorite comment so far!!
Was glad to be part of this. Looking forward to the screening tonight!
Loved your part in this!
I felt the presence of the greats watching this film. Robert Heinlein, Asimov, Phillip K. Dick and so on.
This is one of the best sci-fi shorts I've seen on UA-cam. No, let me correct that. THE best. Acting, dialogue, cinematography, pacing, sets, wardrobe, etc., all believable and absorbing in support of a great plot. Kudos.

The BEYOND short film is now subtitled in English, Français, Deutsch, Português, српски, y Español! Come check it out, world.
I watched it with French subtitles and it's French, but just the literal word for word translation. Some of it doesn't make much sense because the wrong definition of a word was used or the expression wasn't properly translated. It's probably best not to have subtitles than to have them like this. But the film is very well done.
Two souls
The german translation was the worst :D its now revised till minute 18. ;) later ill do the rest. btw the story is very nice!
Suzanne Martin I've updated it to another French translation. Let me know if it's any better.
Luna1337 Updated! Let me know if it's better :)
Bothering to get the Latin and French right was crucial. That was what got my buy in.
Well, Latin was so-and-so...but that's just a detail.
The French was terribly unconvincing. The rest of the film was quite good though
First, totally captivating: the story, the characters, the whole execution of this work. Second, time travel stories usually get so convoluted and never work themselves out in such a satisfying way as this one. I love this film!
You need more funding so you can make even better longer movies like this one. This could easily have been a very successful 2hour long movie if you had the backing of a wealthy company to fund it. All in all 10/10
All I need is $3.50
God DAMN! It's the God damn Loch Ness monstah!
Its perfect as it is.
You must watch this film! Absolutely phenomenal!!!
What??? A time travel story that ends in the betterment of humanity....what??? Well done....love this whole concept and it was done beautifully.
I can't wait to see more short films like this. WOW I am finding it difficult to express my positive thoughts about this film, the creators really have a greater view of our purpose here on earth.
If you want more short film you should pay sum funds
Amazing. The best short sci fi on time travel that I have ever watched
Unbelievable. Couldn’t stop watching. Interesting take of the time traveler’s paradox. Especially finding the blank journal.
This is the best short film to ever exist, thanks for giving a great plot and satisfying ending.
Eventually, this video will be in 4K... reply to this comment if you saw it before that! :D
Eu vi o/ brk
eu vi :}
So proud of you Joe!
You better believe I have. Great work Joe
360p and still amazing. :) Great job Joe!
And that's how you fit a full movie script into 40 minutes. Brilliant story, casting, locations, effects. Thank you. I loved this.
Wow this was really good. Just watched on my 4K TV and it looked amazing. The story was very well written, I look forward to your next one.
Years after watching I still think about this short film from time to time.
Ah, everything goes full circle, reminds me of your old time paradox videos :) I love the little crossover bit there, big things are happening!
David Lam Bag Thief? This one? ua-cam.com/video/rQYBKtBwAM4/v-deo.html
That's it ;)
***** yeah
Absolutely the best one I ve ever seen, congratulations for this masterpiece, everything was perfect, the best 41 minutes used to watch a movie
Beautifully done. Reminds me of Jorge Luis Borges 'Book of Sand' for the time paradox / loop ...
(Watching from Melbourne Australia)
Excellent story is an understatement. Truly the greatest short I’ve seen. Absolutely loved it
This was so beautiful :'(
:D

Watched it 3 times now.
I'm simply in awe of how you consistently pump out creative content. I love your work. You are inspiring. Keep it up!

This looks cool...
Thanks, me.

you should watch it it not only looks cool but it is cool!
possibly from the past
I saw this about a year ago, and stumbled upon it again tonight. I watched it again and was great, just like the first viewing.
Beautifully told and love that it starts by referencing the end.
Just goes to show you don't need crazy fancy CGI to tell a great story.
I love crazy fancy CGI , with a good story! Here goes 41:07 of my quest !
Far more better than many hollywood sci fi movies. Style, story, acting with just one word excellent!
Awesome really, great film, when i start seeing i couldn't take my eyes of the screen for 1 second completely awesome good job guys this is a outstanding short film way better that many movies of big companies, completely amazing great job to you all, that many more like this one can be done guys good luck you have all that you need to success :)
i watch the film from Portugal and the part that i liked more has when he realized that it was him that started all and was with peace with him self, but i kinda that imagine that something like that would happen
Thank you all for creating and developing this perfect short film BEYOND its a completely perfect short film it has that a real film needs, great job
Waaaaait... Cypra... Time travelling...
Are you building a sci-fi universe with coherent rules?
I love that!!
What coherent rules? Where did the ideas for the tech originate?
Me: Huge fan of Sci-fi...

awesome film, great work from the whole team!
wow!

This was amazing. I would have paid to see this.
Nice work Joe!
Wow! This is what SciFi is all about. A great story with a lesson. I loved the short movie. As simple as that.
IN B4 4K! Great Stuff MGM Team! some of the filmmaking aspects of this are top level, It's almost as good as a cat video!

@@MysteryGuitarMan what camera did u use to shot it?
Cat video ?...🐱🐱🐱
I feel like i've watch a 2hr movie, nice work guys.

wow this was really good, one of the best short films I've seen recently
Fantastic Story, very non sci-fi but sci-fi! I really enjoyed this short film and thought it was well crafted and entertaining!

The most original story I have watched so far on youtube. It was beautiful, action and suspense without violence and profanity. It was just wonderful.
Without violence? How about the attack on the young woman in a dark alley? It was possibly just a purse theft, but they made it unnecessarily seem like an attempted rape. Perhaps this is something that Hollywood has made us numb to, but it's still gratuitous violence. Asking the woman to wear those ridiculous stilettos was also superfluous.
Overall I thought the movie was entertaining although a bit obtuse with respect to psychology and verisimilitude.
Here's another look at the making of BEYOND! bit.ly/BeyondBTS2
That was grade A entertainment right there.
This was fantastic... the first piece of entertainment I've seen in years that gave me hope that there are still some people who can create.. thank you for giving this to the world
Awesome film. I also have one question... where can i buy that ring (no need for time travel)? i just loved the design ^_^
Okay.. correct me if I am wrong, but did I just spot MysteryGuitarMan/Joe at 29:37 ?
That was definitely him
+Lauren de Graaf yep haha!!!!
I am impressed as a science fiction fan of over 50 years I have never enjoyed a story more. Thank you.
I like how he starts off as a pupil of Benedict of Nursia, at Monte Cassino... where he finds a "mysterious" auto-injector; Then his story extends through the ages. The Byzantine era, feudal France, etc. My earliest judgements of this whole film were that it posed a major question: Would you want to be immortal/mortal..? That decision is a "double-edged blade" Overall, a good story to me.!. :D
(Btw, I understand the references because I research ALOT of things... mainly history.)
There's obviously much more to this film than my first "judgements!"
+Ben Skelly It depends on meaning, purpose and context of life and/or perception of eternity. Immortality in a fallen world be unfulfilling. Immortality in an unbroken and untainted world, would always be enough.
Immortality would indeed be a curse. Hell, a 300-year lifespan would be enough to be torturous. This is a topic most have never taken the time to investigate properly. Intuitively, it naively and narcissistically strikes us with a sense of "sure! why not!?" But plenty of philosophers and deep-thinkers have thoroughly evaluated such scenarios and, spoiler alert, our instincts are massively wrong. Spend 15 minutes reading about it and you'll know quickly come to grips with just how fucked such a situation would be.
Something you and "plenty of philosophers and deep-thinkers" have no category from which to make any valid conclusions.I would say "speak for yourself", but in your limited humanity, you cannot.
Jason Gabler In your limited humanity you have failed to understand that I was speaking for myself. It's got to be hard though making sense of things when carrying around so much narcissism. You'll be free of the burden soon enough.
Really good, very well written and acted out.
This was incredible. Very moving and eye opening. I got the message that Sometimes we have to stop allowing intense feelings of anger dictate our lives because while we are engulfed in that fog - we miss out on all of the bigger picture. Letting such rage create tunnel vision, eats away at the human soul - it is a taker of free will and positive energy until the only thing that remains is a hollowed out heart driven by a passion for revenge. Once we find the strength to put those malicious intentions to the side - we can gain clarity like we never knew & we can learn things that may suprise us. Mental/ emotional/ spiritual Clarity can have the power to open doors we overlooked in anger....the same doors that ultimately allow our broken souls closure & the chance to rectify wrongs.

VayMatt I'm really considering making it into a real game!
Wow such a well thought out piece, bravo.
WOW! I'm seriously impressed. Fantastic story, well-written, well-acted, directed, and shot. A small cinematic masterpiece hiding in the corners of UA-cam.
Hey where can I buy this ring? I've been looking everywhere and I just can't seem to find it.
Wanna know how we pulled off this production? Here's a look behind the scenes: bit.ly/BeyondBTS1
