Damn, man, that’s heartbreaking, but I love his persistence to save his brother.

[@paulhunter1525]

Ancient Bloodline of Light : He's only considering time factor. But, you can't change fate. No matter how many times he goes back in time. It's simply his brothers time to die

[@ancientbloodlineoflight]

Paul H Fleming You are right, Paul

[@JonnyBoyOfficial]

@@paulhunter1525 Yeah, but what if his fate was to save his brother? For his brother to be saved? Maybe that is why he is in that loop.

[@edbailey7533]

I don't have the superlatives to adequately explain how highly I think of this film. All the pieces have come together to make something truly special, and I have been changed as a result.

[@snuggles1406]

The same here. But I absolutely do enjoy, with a broad smile on my face, the really good, heartfelt intelligent stories like this one.

[@Thomas-lh4hf]

Well its Ground hogs day with poor acting. The lead has zero emotion... I wouldn't cast him to be a grip XD

[@edbailey7533]

@@Thomas-lh4hf I'm sorry you didn't like it, but you might be missing a point about the story. The lead character has been through the events as we see them unfold, many, many times. He's long past having any emotions about the things going on around him. All he wants to do is to save his brother, and he's devoted all this effort toward that one goal. It's his brother he's emotional about, and we see that only at the end, when he realizes the painful truth of the situation. Now, the lead actor may or may not have done the best possible job of portraying that character, but a key part of the story is that he's so fixated on his mission that he hasn't got *time* for emotions.

[@246spyder]

Exactly, his experiences' are all he is thinking about and HAS to follow them to the second, his emotion finally comes and he experiences' the inevitable. His look is his final emotion. He did a good job all through from the beginning.

[@vixiki]

@@Thomas-lh4hf That was kind of the point. It is at the end he realizes there is nothing he can do about his brother dying on that day, so he's just going to use that last opportunity to speak to him. Also, he's a super-geek who discovered how to turn back time, so he actually played that part perfectly.

[@chinookvalley]

I can't stop crying. If only I had one last breakfast with my guy. Don't worry about what's going to happen later, enjoy the moment, it might be your last.

[@jeruharlem]

[@kimondmadison5058]

Point taken man 👌

[@GandalfDeRomania.]

No, that is not the last moment. That is the 381st attempt. The guy who memorized 400 lines of code just to make a 6 grade kid happy can't let go of his brother, even if they only spoke twice in 4 years. He won't give up, he spent 380 days not giving up. This time they are going to talk after the phone gets wet and well into the afternoon. Maybe, just maybe, this is the exit. If not, tomorrow it's the 382's day.

[@discretelycontinuous2059]

Superbly amazing. He watched his brother die nearly 400 times over. His brother in the end said that "firemen don't run away from fires". All he wanted was to soend time with his brother. He finally let go and acceoted his brothers fate and allowed them to have this final bonding and human connection. That way, when the time comes he could say goodbye properly, and let his brother go out and save people with the remainder of the life he has left. His brother would not die in vain running away from danger but instead run full-tilt straight into the flames and rip other people, strangers out from it's grip. Everybody dies eventually, is it not noble to do so bravely and to make your last action something which helps your fellow humans? What a fantastic film!

[@Estiben60]

Interesting take on time travel. It seems you can move the timeline out of place, but it inevitably reverts to the original course, preventing paradoxes.

[@lotussavage1283]

he said it was a loop not time travel

[@dataexpunged6969]

[@hunterofendermen367]

It's finny you should say that lol How do you feel about the tv series Meet the Kardashians?? Bc the director/producer of Exit Strategy, Travis Bible, also produced like 5 episodes of MTK. IMDb, check it out, it's true. A vast majority of all these Dust short films are created by people who have done major roles in the film industry. Don't believe me check out IMDb yourself lol. For all intents and purposes the Dust channel is an indie channel, not a fan-made channel. It's interesting how the "internet" will get in bed with anything simply bc it has the Fan-Made label slapped on it before actually trying it or watching it. Side Note: I am in no way bagging on Dust, bc I absolutely love most of their short films.

[@RobBomford]

@@hunterofendermen367 All that really displays is that the industry itself is at fault and not the individuals. If anything it gives me hope that those producing oversaturated mainstream media are capable of works of art like this too, let's hope they continue to do the latter.

[@kensavage7657]

It sucks that I can "only" mark this one with a like. This is one of the best DUST shorts, no - one of the best "anythings" I've ever watched. Just shows that something doesn't need to be flashy or big budget in order to do a story well. And that's what this does. Brilliantly done!

[@Cryptonymicus]

All it needs is two hours of mindless action and $100 million in pretty effects and it could be a Hollywood blockbuster. (Much better as it is, though. Kudos.)

[@marvinratchford7913]

a quick check of movie budgets vs box office return reveals --- a good story needs no money to validate itself. The sublime experience is typically personal, as was this one!

[@josephmead8325]

This is truly awesome. I love short films where character is placed over special effects or even the core premise. I think at its heart, this story is about how love is communicated, and how trying to keep somebody around doesn't mean anything if the relationship isn't there. Seeing all the pains that he went through to keep his brother alive was really moving, and gave a heartbreaking clarity to the sterile and emotionless nature of the first half of the short film. 10/10, flipping excellent

[@PoFFizdaMan]

my thoughts exactly !

[@theanonymous4818]

It's rare that you find something which brings tears to your eyes and yet puts a smile on your face. -Love from a 16 year old physics Enthusiast.

[@jessebrill145]

lol "physics enthusiast", there is a reason this is called sci-fi, hate to tell you time travel will never be possible. it is impossible. Einstein couldn't solve his own equation for it, and nobody since then has either. The equation for time travel, theoretically speaking, is easier to solve than other equations that are much more difficult that have already been solved. so if time travel was a thing, it would already be possible and many, many people would be able to do it.

[@cdubbleyoo]

@@jessebrill145I'm a person who typically rolls eyes at time travel themes. I think you missed the point. He likes science. This short touched him emotionally. End of story.

[@jessebrill145]

@@cdubbleyoo if it was so "emotional" which i'll say that i think that was the real point of the film, than it's irrelevant to state your interest in physics, bc time travel and physics don't go together, people have tried to say and prove otherwise, but no.

[@enhaxed7839]

@Martyr4JesusTheChrist Time travel forward in time will be possible as soon as someone invents a way to put people in stasis, backward is unlikely to ever be possible though there are some parts of special relativity that may allow it but involve orbiting a supermassive spinning object at close to the speed of light so probably won't be tested this week.

[@cdubbleyoo]

@@jessebrill145 (sigh). It's irrelevant to try to judge the comment regardless. Obviously, it's science FICTION. The connection to science did something for them. There was no declaration of factuality of time travel. Science fiction is allowed to play with physics as much it is with any field. If your issue is with the piece, or even the subject, comment on that. You have your emotional response and let others have theirs. And, YES, I am commenting on the way humans should interact with each other on the interweebz.

Loosely similar to "The Butterfly Effect" with Ashton Kutcher. The protagonist kept using his time-traveling ability to try to avert a negative outcome. But no matter what he did, the outcome was always negative. Only in the end when he gave up on his goals and gave up on trying to create a positive outcome for himself, did the outcome actually become positive.

[@CarbageMan]

It's amazing how many commenters want to either add something to it or take something away from it. It was a nice take on a concept many of us have seen, which does not invalidate it at all. Not being a multimillion dollar production, it can have a couple glitches-far more expensive films do. They did a great job, and did not waste the viewer's time with extra BS.

[@kirbs0001]

@@juangama1850 I believe he said that to stop Matt from looking in the engine bay. Matt clearly doesn't know what a dead battery sounds like, and probably doesn't know how to fix it. Saying something like "I pulled a fuel line off your car" would be too suspicious.

8:13 i was like "so you TOOK... okay, go on."

Anyone that has lost a brother. This means the world. After everything, it was just satisfying to just enjoy the time you might or might not have left.

[@The-Ant-Hill]

That was REALLY good. Once it was obvious, as per your design, this was all about time travel your ending are only a few. He tried and lived so hard to save his brother but thankfully at the end he realized no matter what he thought or felt he had to let him go. So he made the best of it. Great parallel that personally ties into my life. I felt this deep. Thank you so much

So many great Dust films, this one is the best... thank you!

Man I am amazed by the quality of this channel, they know what they are doing. Intelligent story line always. And hats off to the actors who pull this off. Blessed that I found this channel.

[@senosab]

Awesome. One of the best time travel stories I've seen.

[@petermirtitsch1235]

Excellent film. Captures the story wonderfully. Loved it.

[@LienRanMizunagi]

Now this is a good TV series that I'll watch~ superb acting

[@glubglub2044]

Straight to my favorites. I love films like these that depict great messages. You can't live life fearing everything around you... 'cause that's not living. Enjoy life while you can with the people you love.

I swear to god. There are so many incredible short films on youtube that are so much more interesting than a lot of the "blockbuster" hollywood movies.

[@Smapdi_Flaffermann]

Might be my favorite so far!

[@parkerheathiii4881]

Really, really good work here. So much packed into 15 minutes. OK, 14:55.

[@VictoriousBirdTV]

I'm not crying... There is just something in my eye :'( Beautifully done, as a sibling myself I would do anything to try and save them. The world has a way of making the time, the time... Again concept is done beautifully, I loved this.

[@lynnbogart4373]

I think you should have a best short film award hands-down!

[@jeffcd3559]

Well thought out and well written.
