Senn (2013)

Dir. Josh Feldman

Writer/Dir. Josh Feldman's first and only (at time of writing) directorial work is a low budget, socially-aware science fiction set on a world that's part industrial workhouse and part slum.

Senn (Zach Eulberg) is a small cog in a much larger, exploitative, corporate machine. He's so small that he doesn't even know what shape the machine is, but he's able to recognises his own insignificance within it. However, unlike his co-workers, Senn has a way out - even if he isn't yet fully aware of that fact himself.

There's some slow-mo padding that's at worst functional but mostly serves a dual-purpose that's powerful when it hits its mark, stirring heart and head in the process. Most of the cast are still learning their trade, but special mention must go to Lauren Taylor and Wylie Herman.
