Today we dive into another maze-ish related short film from 2016, Iteration 1, directed by Jesse Lupini.
Iteration 1 (IMDB)
Here is the premise of the short film: A woman (played by Katharine Isabelle who you might know from Ginger Snaps) wakes up in a bed in the middle of a well-lit white room with black grids on the walls. She has 60 seconds to, well, after 60 seconds she collapses and everything resets. Her goal, although never stated is to find a way out of the place she is in (which is about as specific as I can get because it isn’t really clear except it is maze-like).. Each time she awakens a voice declares the Iteration # she is on.
And it’s weird with little dialogue but actually fun to watch. You’ll find yourself telling the woman, hey, maybe try this (or that). Definitely worth a viewing ! I give it a 7/10 and suggest you invest the 14 minutes you will need to watch this film.
The best part about short films is you can often watch them for free on YouTube !!
