**Award-Winning** Sci-Fi Short Film: "Helio" - by Shadow Council Productions | TheCGBros

[@tardismole]

192years, 11months, 1 week, 4 days, 1hour and 36 minutes and no-one on the surface even tried to look for them? What led them into the bunker? What happened down there that made it all go wrong? And why were the lights turned off? How does this man get over his culture shock? This needs a full length movie. It needs answers.

[@gossimer3]

I'd love to see this made into a full length feature film, from the beginning; about the war that led to them surviving deep underground, their existence, to the city above, how they survived, and what happens next! 😃👍❤️

[@nickmaclachlan5178]

isn't that just Elysium? Pretty much the same idea, just without the war bit......

[@michaellegg9381]

It implies there was no real war it was lies to the underground population to make power and resources for the city above!! That's why the hatch is directly outside of the above ground city and 2 pipes from the hatch to the city where the power is supplied from the underground city to the above ground city and the sign shows it's a underground power plant full of forced labour !! The people who are there was taken as children who doesn't know the truth about the above ground city they are forced to supply

I come back from time to time thirsting for this. It's so masterful with stellar character acting from everyone involved. The feel on this is incredible! The lead screams loudly of Bruce Campbell and it's great how fun yet, pivoting and heart pumpingly intense it keep you running from start to finish! Literally... The score sails you all the way through, with a plot that mirrors well the duality we struggle with everyday with the "have" and the "have nots". You find yourself really rooting for them especially when you see everybody united in 100% solidarity. Shots of the outer rim minors watching in awe hone in the feeling the whole world is standing still for him. Helio will be a name I will never forget. Thank you...

Worker escapes his dark, dystopian underworld where he lived and had an actual mining job - to arrive, dirty and clueless in a clean transhumanist utopia city where he has no contacts, no job and no home. Likely the upper world was holding the underworld suppressed. Will this man be thrown back down where he belongs or will be he accepted as equal among those above? Vote now on your teletubby screens!

[@Baerchenization]

He would be killed. In the underworld, he would cause an uprising; and above you could never trust him with his knowledge.

[@rewtnode]

Kristiyan Kirchev No, he will be saved, washed, healed, given food and medication. He will be received by the neo-cons and liberal elite in those towers, and he will be dined and wined. Three days later he will be given a wonderful place to live with all amenities, and soon a book deal. He will be surprised how nice this ruling class is, and how little it actually knows about the misery below. They will all be eager to help and buy the book, which will be a best seller and then quickly forgotten. A year later he can barely recall where he came from, the faces of his friends below fade from his consciousness, and soon he loses the last bit of desire to return. He once wanted to start the revolt, now he believes it will destroy the world above and below.

[@Ohmriginal722]

The thing you have to realize is they went down there 200 years ago because of a huge war, so when he comes up the technology above is 200 years better, with mindsets that are 200 years more progressive, and also the only reason they never came up was because they thought the war was either still going on or had turned Earth above into a wasteland of nuclear fallout. If the people knew the world was not only not toxic, but also fervent with futurism, then of course they'd all be allowed to go up.

[@hal900x]

No Ethan. Think about the ruling class below, and what they stand to lose should the truth come out. They probably know it's fine up there...after all, there is a ladder and keys.

[@jenniferstewart6075]

How very well put. I see a struggle between ruling powers with this man as the major piece in play. A struggle between those above and those below, with perhaps an ongoing 'understanding' between the two powers. With this fellow now free in the upper realm, as it were, a sort of Blue Sky On Mars theme seems possible. It's unlikely the powers above are unaware of those below. Perhaps the typical sympathetic player enters the scene and helps this man, leading him in the right direction to free both worlds from seen and unseen tyranny. A common scenario, of course. It would be nice to see some sort of twist in the norm. Not much hasn't been written and it would take quite the clever mind to make it an extraordinary story. I love the premise and I see this becoming more. A true masterpiece in the making.

[@nhall1727]

I thought it was developed quite skillfully, and the entire world setup was tactfully addressed, with how the world operates, the form of payment, the relations between the citizens and their security, and the obvious - the language utilized. The plot was very thought out and very good, and the filming was grade A, in my unprofessional opinion. I was left with little questions, but great understanding. Exceptional job!

[@pwnmeisterage]

The ladder could be a symbol of hope for the population, a reason they continue their oppressive toil. Having no "ladder" means no escape, no future, no purpose. So it's a deliberately obvious centerpiece easily seen by everyone every time they look upwards. Visible but inaccessible. Unless you're wearing jumpboots (which are all worn by the guys with guns).

[@magellan6108]

Star Trek TOS had an episode like this. It was "The Cloud Minders." "Helios" is solely devoted to the miners, though. Only by inference are the citizens of the "cloud city" known in this take on the theme. Yes, yes lots of others differences, too, but the theme of the absolute separation between elitists and miners (read: commoners) is there.

[@gossimer3]

Not exactly. We know nothing at all about the City above, just as the "denizens" underground don't seem to. I think they must think/feel that whatever is above them must be better than how they live below. Why else would they be prevented from finding out?

"THX1138" DIRECTED BY: George Lucas Featuring: Robert Duval Same plot, except Robots are cops and they charge your "account" for pursuit, arrest, etc. Everyone wears an intravenous-medicating pack, to "stay calm". Similar ending (up the shafts to the outside) Spoiler Alert: Robot cops stop chasing Duval, when his account runs out of credits, allowing him to escape, up the shafts to the light of day.

I didn't get that 'til the end credits, though I do think someone mentions the word during the chase. I guess their reapings power the city above? If they're locked down there, I guess the city, though beautiful, is really based on evil exploitation. I would like to know what some of those cool posters said. I think one had a big word "eliminate" on it. Cool designs... by that Silk Screen co? SFX were well done. Sets, costumes, music & makeup too.

This is America's present. We require lots of slave labor and sweat shop manufacturing among other nefarious things. We're the evil ones benefiting from the suffering of entire nations.

[@metaspherz]

BS! People's inner thoughts are exposed by their opinions. The evil that you see is a reflection that originates from within your own self. Don't be so smug just because your interpretation of reality is bitter, profane and wildly askew. America is no more evil than any other nation, industrial or otherwise. And entire nations are NOT suffering due to America's needs. That onus is on their own government -- usually a dictatorship -- and that's NOT America's fault. The one thing that ties us all together is greed. Try working for free. Try producing something of value or that you're proud of and just walk away from it. Give it away without expecting compensation. Not just once but all the time. You can't. Nobody can and that's no more greedy or evil than profiting from another person's labor. That's called commerce....

[@KennethHuntington1]

The US dropped 26,171 bombs in 2016. That's three bombs every hour on primarily Muslim countries. That's evil. Don't forget we destroyed two ENTIRE CITIES in Japan for no real good reason wasting countless innocent civilians' lives. Evil is as evil does. Your cellphone and other goods likely came from sweat shops with suicide nets that put economic and health struggles on less privileged countries. We're benefiting from the suffering of others. I can go on. Our economic actions do limit the options other countries have and our culture invading their communities is corrosive and destructive. Ever hear of cultural appropriation? That's one of many aspects of this. It's important we take accountability for our country's bad actions and stop them from happening again as best as we can(which starts by getting our heads out of the sand)

This needs a sequel!!

[@dawnrazornephilim]

Reminds me of Metropolis.

[@satyr1349]

Sea BelowMe I also thought it was quite simular to the beginning of the novel 'Red Rising' by Pierce Brown. The mega indoor city also seemed like ones portrayed in one of Asimozs 'Robot' novels, just underground ofc.

[@dawnrazornephilim]

I have never read 'Red Rising', do you reconmend it? The only books by Asimov I have read are the Foundation series, I enjoyed them, not sure why I haven't read any others? I guess I see Metropolis because of the premise- a downtrodden working class underground, oblivious to an elite class living it large above ground. Wasn't there a series of Stargate that did something similar? Hahaha.

[@satyr1349]

Yeah i'd recommend the trilogy from Pierce Brown starting with 'Red Rising', its an easy read not on the level of Asimov or the greats of the 20th century (imo), very probably inspired by older novels. However very enjoyable and engrossing so a 'page turner' as they say. Focuses on a character from a down trodden class forced to work etc, then things happen... As Asimov Foundation may be the best series but the Robot one comes very close, hard to say really, then theres the Empire ones too. Good forum explaining the order of the books (as they link together supposedly) scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/2335/what-order-should-asimovs-foundation-series-be-read-in
