More About "Limbo":
In the future, there are no prisons. There are no institutions with high walls and barred cells. Instead, the convicted are placed into a coma and forced to live out their sentence within a dream, with reality inverted, as the victim of their own crime. You killed someone’s wife? Your sentence is a life where your spouse has been taken from you, leaving you to toil in grief and mental anguish.
But for ‘inmates’ who are wrongfully convicted, and are forced to live in their punishing alternate reality with no awareness of their true circumstances, what becomes of them? Will they ever escape?
This is the story of one such person, and those that come to his rescue.

Ooooh this definitely left me wanting more. What does August do with this knowledge? Does he actually think he's going crazy or does he try to find the limits of the computer program that he is in to escape? What happens to Zeb and Lily? Maybe they'll try hacking into the system to help him that way or maybe August does it on his own from inside! I want More! More! More! 😀😀😀 Great job and well done! Oh and love Louise Brealey!

I post this after watching, half asleep... I was run over by a car a year and a half ago. I remember only waking in the hospital after ten days. Since then, short term memory loss, deja vu, random odd events... I'm living this short right now...I don't know what's real and what's not. It's like someone is trying to get a message thorough to me. In any event, the editing is superb and seamless.

[@helenoftroy6265]

Just a theory but I believe this life is not the real reality in the sense of where our souls go in death. A lot of people who have been clinically dead and remember “the afterlife” say that they knew that was the real reality, and that it seemed more real than life here on earth if that makes sense. Almost like life is a temporary dream in the scope of eternity as our souls are eternal, whether we end up in a biblical hell or heaven, get reincarnated, or we exist in a simulation, what we see, touch, smell, hear is just a small part of a greater reality. Maybe your injury affected your sense of self or changed something in your brain chemistry that has you experiencing these symptoms or maybe you’ve been to a greater reality and subconsciously feel it, who knows. It has got to be frustrating to experience those symptoms and I hope you’re getting therapeutic help for it, I’m assuming your brain was injured to a certain extent whether by the accident, the trauma or the medications/procedures. Treasure your second chance at life and the loved ones who almost lost you, wish you the best.

[@ColdWarAviator]

Thank you, I have made every effort to make the most of this second chance. As to whether this is reality or I'm remembering real reality, I cannot say. I feel like if there are different levels of reality that there is bound to be some bleed over at the boundaries between them... Kind of like that cold draft at a window that doesn't quite seal right even when closed.

[@firstbornjordan]

@@helenoftroy6265 God has done all he can to show us the way. We will either accept reality or reject it - accept Christ, or reject Him. Choose life, or be a prisoner of death.

[@rider1956a]

But people create confusing meanings behind the phrase 'accept Christ'. It means accepting the sacrificial love that it takes to wake us up, unhook us from the matrix and breathe free is God's love and develop a relationship there that overcomes the boundaries that are created by the rules of the road.

[@jeri8853]

@@rider1956a Richard, three years ago I froze in Alaska. I had been living there for 17-18 years and on a cold thanksgiving I stepped out my front door thinking I had heard my landlord calling me, slipped and couldn’t get up! Ice, snow and a freezing rain. I laid there accepting my fate, actually concerned my eyes would be damaged from the freezing water pooling in them. I was worried I’d go blind. I had no afterlife experience… but I know know I can face death calmly. Hours later I was found, in a coma, hypothermia, and was airlifted to Seattle. I lived but had 3 heart attacks, pacemaker implanted and lost 1/2 of my muscle tone. I’m more an “observer” now. Seeing how this life will unfold.

[@SynthoidSounds]

Definitely one of the better productions ever presented by DUST. It puts the concept of "question reality" into an entirely different context. The idea of future psychodynamic reality "replacement" therapy isn't new, but here it is presented in a dark, but not at all implausible future. If this is the future, I'll stay here for now . . .

[@mwalsh128]

This is so much better than anything new on Netflix or Prime. Great script, direction, acting, everything really. Well done!

Limbo is without a doubt one of the best shortfilms ever. My sincerely congratulations, Andrew and Rob. Thank to you both.

[@MySickstring]

I would suggest Dust puts together a group of these amazing shorts and makes a two hour film that shows on the big screen everywhere. I’d pay to see that instead of the Hollywood drivel pumped into our lives any day. Who’s with me? Let’s get this happening. I want to go to the Dust premier red carpet event in the near future!

[@BigDsGaming2022]

You can find them at Sundance Film Festival

[@MySickstring]

@@BigDsGaming2022 yeah, but I think these outclass what Hollywood makes and should be available for the masses to view on the big screen. More so than just one or two venues. Like I would pay for an AMC membership just to go watch 7 or 8 shorts like these... and without all of the previews, commercials and filler that normally we all suffer through.

@@MySickstring I agree why can't it be world famous in the US and generate billions for the Indie filmmakers ! The Elite in Hollywood consider it an Enemy and try to keep Indie Short Films small . Yeah that suks .

[@mandielou]

You want an amazing channel to join hands with Hollywood? I'm confused on if I understood you properly. Sry mystickstring 🤣

[@mandielou]

@@MySickstring okay I better understand what you're saying. Yes I agree. I would love to watch these on a big screen however I'd be concerned that they would lose their integrity, originality and so on, if they were to go "big", depending on how they did it. In many cases, they'd have to stoop to an elitist level just to be accepted into the "gang" of Hollywood elites or if they don't, be destroyed by them. Better they get big ethically, with morals intact, it would take longer but they'd be able to do it without them, if they just relied on us by word of mouth, & their marketing. They need to market more too gain a wider audience. I've only seen 'Dust' on KZbin, not saying that doesn't mean they aren't on other sites and platforms but I've never seen it anywhere else. For them to have a chance to get recognized more and land more private funding, they need to branch out. If Christian filmmakers can get on the big screen without Hollywood's help or approval, I fully believe Dust can do it too. 👍🏻

[@carpeimodiem]

I want to say, as an American coming into our new wave of inherited dystopia, nothing quite breaks my heart as much as how broken our criminal justice system is. We incarcerate humans at 5x the rate of the rest of the world. So many innocents, and those convicted by unjust laws. So many lives and families destroyed. No one will stop it. It's too profitable. Nothing has captured this heartache quite so beautifully and simply as this brilliant film has. I didn't think it could be done in a short. The forced plea deal. The torture. The horror of losing everything. This is our future. Anyone who tells you it isn't, probably doesn't pay enough taxes... and wants to keep it that way. Thank you to Rob, Andrew and DUST.

Oh my god... That was incredible. I'm utterly stunned at how well this was done, and just how evocative and heartbreaking the story is. I was sucked in by the acting, the cinematography, and the writing. It was surreal, and yet familiar. It explores memory, consciousness, and emotion in a way that I've rarely seen before. Ursula K. Leguin could have written this.

[@watchdust]

Thank you for the incredibly thoughtful comment. We love Ursula K. Leguin, what a great comparison! Rob and Andrew create a story that feels close, partially because the characters are beautifully rich and, although this world is like a fever dream, it doesn't feel so otherworldly.

Omfg! Pardon the pun, but that was out of this world. Did he dream his daughter's and the victim's brother's roles, as both appeared to believe him innocent? His memories are false, as we heard that was part of the rehabilitation process, yet he still refused responsibility for the girl's disappearance. To be honest, at one point I was suspecting alien abduction of him and the girl with only him being returned. The answer of his guilt or innocence was never proven, however, he seemed happy at the end, as if he'd been vindicated or exonerated in some sense, while going back into the dream? Superb acting by everyone, particularly our protagonist. It must be a difficult and uncomfortable role to play, a possible paedo. It's left me with more questions than answers and is going in my sci-fi collection. Well done to everyone involved in this brilliant film!

[@KarrieDreammind5]

The most painful moment when they reached the rooftop and realised there's nowhere to go from there... For a moment I thought the father considered jumping. It's sad they went through all this trouble and got so far, only for him to be taken and put back to sleep. I really thought the story would have a happy ending with them escaping but no... The only thing I found a bit unrealistic was them managing to outrun the hospital staff, climbing up the stairs with a semi-conscious man who's just woken up from a coma-like state. But other than that I have to say this is now one of my top favourite Dust films! It's truly mind-blowing! It takes you for an emotional ride as you try to figure out what is really going on. And the cinematography was simply SUPERB! A true masterpiece!

Have you ever had a dream, that you were so sure was real? Fantastic piece of work! Bravo!

[@spaceflight1019]

Funny you should say that. I learned how to control my dreamscape after seeing "Alien" in 1979 and getting devoured by the monster six nights in a row! On the seventh night, I won. In the days after the loss of the Space Shuttle Columbia and her crew, I began having dreams about working in space. Realistic enough that when I asked an astronaut if your toes and fingers get cold while "outside" he asked me how I knew this. The dreams were realistic enough that I knew not to do anything stupid like taking a glove or my helmet off. I would lay down to sleep and spend the night working in space. The nightly dreams ended after I attended the final CAIB hearing in Washington, and started on the path of learning why I was here. One night, I dreamt of working on the outside of the ISS with two friends from work. As I stretched to grab a handhold, my sleeve and glove separated. Instantly, the exposed skin in the sunlight burned, while the skin in the shadow hurt bad from freezing. I began rotating my wrist to equalize the pain and slid my sleeve back up. As I began to awaken, I thought for sure that I was merely laying on my right arm, cutting the circulation off. Imagine my surprise to find that I was flat on my back! My right arm was across my stomach...and it was cold as ice from my elbow to my fingertips. That dream happened in 2005, yet like all of the "space dreams", I remember it well.

Once you’re back in a dream, most of your waking life memories are wiped out. That’s why your dream reality is so convincing! it became your only reality. Otherwise if you could remember your waking life memories WHILE you’re dreaming then it would be a lucid dream and not a dream anymore. See in your dream tonight if you can really remember of anything from your waking life. Do you have perfect memory of your waking life while you’re dreaming? Probably not. Or maybe the cabin was his real waking life and the whole incident last night was just a dream conjured up by his stress of having to leave his cabin and wanting so much to see his daughter alive again.

Amazing piece of work with an outstanding cast. So well written and acted. Bravo! 👏👏👏

[@zenicepian4330]

So atmospheric really got drawn into the story. Everything was so superbly crafted that I forgot I was watching a film.

[@Alexandria197]

One of the best I have ever seen! It needs an award! Do they have awards in DUST???

[@MrUrrl]

Something I would watch in a series for sure.

[@imagin64]

Everything from DUST is totally brilliant ! Visual Audial Concept Cinema ART 🔹🔷💠🔷🔹

[@imagin64]

No wait .....SUPER WOW ❕

[@hollyperrin7353]

I am the one person who didn't get it. Went to the comment section for the guy who explains everything. Not to be found. Just a sh*t ton of praise from people who "got it."

As I used to say back in the day: This is cosmic, man.

[@DarkSideofSynth]

Great story, acting and soundtrack. Well done!

[@k.saimuyanik6735]

The name of the movie matches perfectly to the story. The soundtrack is extremely impressive along with the whole movie. I wish nobody undergoes a complex profile of mood that August unluckily has.

[@ekaterinas.1330]

Got rid of Netflix and TV ! KZbin is the only thing I watch now, so Dust is very appreciated! Thank you.

[@newtronix]

This was excellent. Well scripted, acted and shot. Thanks!

[@frankrojano2388]

You guys need to bring these movies to the big screens. Well done 👏

[@alanr8702]

"Help me end imprisonment." ... Yeah right. Great film, by the way.

[@linbat6148]

Wow! I could write a review as long as a lifetime on why it’s one of the best I’ve ever seen! For those who have never had the experience of one’s mind going repeatedly through psychosis, this is it. Beyond excellent!

[@mischkaaf5172]

I am amazed at this film! Many of the comments already captured my thoughts so I all will add, is it is time WELL SPENT! I will most likely watch it again & spend the time again. I would like to see more of this story...

[@ilCignoTube]

This is very, very good. My compliments to everyone who contributed.

Basically, in his dreams his victims were trying desperately to avoid his cure. But they didn't manage to do it.

[@tuberobotto]

The actor playing "August" is top notch to me in fact, almost all his profiles in this short film seems to suggest that the role was made for him. He did quite a delivery worthy of a Robert Downey. I hope he and this film/story make a breakthrough to the mainstream arena. Someday.

[@Spacejockey426]

Guys, your movie appeared as a suggested watch - and I'm glad it did! Wow, a lot packed into this shirt film - it fired on all cylinders, Bravo and brava to the filmmakers, and everyone involved in this production!

[@angieg4811]

It had me every second. Kind of freaked me out at the thought that this would or could happen. 😯 Love your videos. 👍

[@watchdust]

We believe that's the eeriest and most hard hitting Sci-Fi. We want to present films that illuminate the future that doesn't feel so far away. Thanks for watching and be sure to check out the filmmaker's socials listed in the description above to keep up with their work.

[@fuwto]

You gave me my faith in cinema back. It's great to see there are still real directors out there!

[@limbofilms8959]

Wow, thanks Michel. Very humbled by your comment.

[@fuwto]

@@limbofilms8959 Keep making films like these. Cinema needs your vision.

[@berch4736]

Really nice stuff! Not boring, not stupid, just a good movie!

[@Kay_Hizzle]

Easily one of the best acted and produced short films on Dust. Fan-bloody-tastic! This could be a feature-length!

[@limbofilms8959]

Thanks Krishna, much appreciated

[@Kay_Hizzle]

No you deserve it! Definitely keeping an eye out for future productions from you guys 👍

[@JeffPitman]

One of the best on the channel. This should be on channel 4.

[@aassmus]

By far Dust si one of the best channels of this century!!! Saludos desde Colombia.

[@cookwithjazz3303]

Really, really good! The acting, filming, editing, story. it's the best thing I've seen on Dust so far.

[@limbofilms8959]

Thanks so much, Michael!

[@kevinr.mcnally8712]

Terrific. Flat out terrific. Bravo. Well done.

[@crisbajcrisbaj468]

Brilliant... a mix of XFiles, Minority Report, Inception, other VR-rehab type stories... a bit creepy... Rob and Andrew, good work!

[@limbofilms8959]

Thanks Crisbaj! We really appreciate it.

[@SpandauJerry]

Absolutely outstanding! A compelling plot w/genius rising tension and a surprising finish. Well done!

[@hudsongomez1128]

This is INCREDIBLE. Production: excellent. Casting: impressive. Filming: superb. How is this not in theaters?

[@donl4914]

If I put this in one word, it would be "Excellent" This got my attention and held me in the story. Thanks for the short!!!
