The DUST Files "Military" | DUST

In the fight against extinction, it’s all hands on deck. Watch war machines, mercenaries, and vampires who’ll do whatever it takes to defend their own in our anthology, "Military".
"Military" Features:
"E-X-T" by Adrian Bobb
200 years after humanity has abandoned the real world for a digital one, the system's most talented security agent is forced out of retirement to recruit and lead a team of talented warriors to eliminate a threat from a world no one has seen for centuries. The real world. Starring Cara Gee (The Expanse)
"Ikarus" by Shaun Escayg
After her brother is fatally wounded, a naïve but ambitious scavenger, must learn to shoot down a futuristic military drone while avoiding a vicious group of hunters, in order to obtain life saving antibiotics before her brother succumbs to infection.
"Ripple Effect" by Hannah Bang and Margo E. Sawaya
In a not so distant future- a coalition of the old earth’s nations have sought and claimed the discovery of a new planet “Gaia” as the human race’s last hope for survival. However, when the human settlements rolled in, what awaited them was neither discovery nor pioneering but colonization and war against the planet’s original inhabitants. With an increasingly militaristic government that demands the settlers’ sacrifice for the good of all, one family is torn apart when the eldest daughter, Ara, questions who the real bad guys are. At a time where mass think seems to be the safest option, Ripple Effect asks us if we’re brave enough to go against the grain, and at what cost?
"Six" by L. Gustavo Cooper
A young female vampire is caught by a clandestine government organization tasked with eliminating vampires and is made an offer she can't refuse: join them and help hunt down her own kind or be eliminated.

Cara Gee is such a presence whenever she is on the screen, not to take away anything from the actors she has worked with, but everyone else in the scene has to either work at that level or they fade into the background. She has a great career ahead of her and I can't wait for more.

[@atlantic_love]

What did you think about the movie? Goofy.

[@shawnerz98]

I liked the DUST allowed the credits to run in full screen on the first 3 shorts. Perhaps you could do that on all of the shorts in the future. Aside from that, those were great films. Enjoyed watching Ikarus again. Ms. Chung's accent in Ikarus is SO cool!

[@josebonito6013]

I love this girl, I can see her growing as an artist so much and delivering some very memorable and unforgettable roles in the future. Every time I see her, either a new episode or a different project altogether it’s palpable how much better, how much more substance she’s able to extract, or bring new colors to her work. Mark my words.

[@psychiatry-is-eugenics]

I agree, as soon as i begin to think I might be starting to comprehend the scenario, it's over. Nice, but too short.

Now that's a term I haven't heard in years. I am so OLD.😂

[@melissachristman2584]

Ohh. I wish they would make longer movies. And not ones that skip movie to movie. I hope they make a part 2 of the laboratory conditions. Some of these are good but the endings and jumping around gets old kinda fast. Feels like they just took 1 part out of the middle of a real movie and that's it.

[@mandysmith7619]

I hate it when the title of a post leads you to believe your getting a full film/documentary/story whatever....but what you actually get are little glimpses of many others..preludes .

[@TheSilmarillian]

@7:58 one of the truest statements made in all of known history

[@ringsaphire]

In all of your known 300 years of history, you mean? (I hope). I'm pretty sure a lot of statements from a lot of historical figures are more widely known (and more universal) than this anecdotic self centered quote. It may have been rad the day he said it for thoses who heard it. Now it's become antiquated and irrelevant, coming from a more simple and optimistic time when he didn't see his country making enemies left and right, betray their allies, commit mass murder, war crimes and promote dictatorships worldwide in the name of profit and global domination. Give enough people enough reasons to take you down and you will go down someday (not because they will destroy you as some might and have tried, but worse, just because they will simply turn their back on you); No empire is eternal, they all crumble, either from their own overinflated egos or from their wannabe replacement.

That quote from Abraham Lincoln is incorrect unfortunately. Aside from that absolutely great work all around. Loved it all. Thank you!

[@peterruiz6117]

Very well done, great acting.....But I may be slow, but I did not get which were the humans.

[@DrachenGothik666]

The side who were with the humanoid robots--they were with the woman in black. The quadrupedal robots were the "bad guys"--they were with the woman in white. The humans had both flesh & "code-born" as being considered human on their side. Apparently, the woman in white had broken some sort of agreement with the human immigrants & this is what caused the war.

[@career.jobbuisness]

Dust is falling off some

[@user-bj4xz7pl1i]

Life would be so much better if these artists were actually challenged to write a full script instead of just dumbing it h down for DUST

[@user-bj4xz7pl1i]

Don’t get me wrong I respect the platform that DUST gives people the opportunity to be apart of.

[@DrachenGothik666]

@@user-bj4xz7pl1i You do realize these shorts weren't specifically made *FOR* Dust, right? They don't actually have an in-house studio making these. They come from all over the world. These are independent film-makers who submitted their pieces in a curated process & Dust paid them for permission to show their work. Anyone can submit a film if it meets Dust's standards of good storyline, good effects & so on.

[@Randy-tp5lm]

​​@@DrachenGothik666Being in a very tight budget. Being in limited roles in minor roles in most movies for Dust. I'm sure that they're doing that in order to do it for their limited options. And having so few opportunities to advance their careers. Having so limited resources, manpower,the financial support to support those types of episodes of mini-series versions like these. It's no wonder that there's a thin line between being in a actual major role,and just merely being in the background. Or being in an alternate role in the same series. Or episodes. Nobody really knows how,when,where, or why these movies are made for Dust. It's just the way it is.

[@isocrates0001]

Not quite sure how the last chapter ties into the earlier pats, but....

[@DrachenGothik666]

The vampire girl is being "recruited" in a war against her own kind, so it does fit, in a way. She'll be a sleeper soldier--a traitor against her own species.

[@aaronbrandt5026]

Why bring a person that is based on emotions to a gun fight?

[@davepowder4020]

And after a person has done their service in the military, it'd be good to not abandon them to starve due to their wounds. The U.S. could do better in this regard, doing more than just a facade to pretend like help is there.

[@OldManPaxusYT]

THE LAST ONE IS YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHAT IRKS ME ABOUT DUST! You shouldn't be including things like that! It's not a short, it's more like an excerpt or a trailer.... like a school project. There's no story, or rather, no RESOLUTION! It's just ANNOYING! Nothing wrong with showing those 'projects' but maybe make a separate channel for them or at least include it in the title!

[@QIKUGAMES-QIKU]

Is this made with that ? UNITY engine for Playstation 5 ? Grand Theft Auto and Bethesdas Star Frontier game should look Brilliant ! 👏 ❤This looks good thx 😊

[@seanhoude]

First one was okay, but ended too abruptly. Second one was too dark to enjoy watching it at all. Third one was at least watchable. Kinda done with these collections. Just show me one short at a time.

[@user-vn4lm2du6o]

They do. Lots. You selected a collection.

[@user-vn4lm2du6o]

I liked them. I wasn’t a great fan of the first one, but I’m not a huge fan of animation or CGI or whatever that was, but I really liked the other three.

[@earthlyng_official4599]

i cant help but critique this... first of all.. a woman saying we are vitruvian men is just silly.. second a robot hobbling off like it has ligaments and pain receptors is hilarious... and third the dialogue writing is a little elementary... and this is just the first short story...
