Dream over
Short Film, Pillmarsh Official. Release TBA
Genre: Psychological Horror
"Dream Over" is an exploration of nature versus science, portrayed through horror elements. As a principal investigator of a clinical trial named "Dream Over" searches for answers in death, a psychologists curiosity of the dream scape (Lucid Dreaming) has left her with a question. Why are nightmares uncontrollable and why are we powerless in them? The clinical trial is now at the phase of implementing their new "Dream Machine" for testing, a network of machines that can link the user to another lucid dreamer in real time and spawn them into a "lobby" where they can communicate and exist while they sleep. So now we are left with the questions again. Are nightmares shared between individuals? When we die, it is told that our brain is still functioning for at least 15 minutes, do we dream in that time? Is that what is considered our purgatory before we "shut off"? Nature can only be tested so much. And if the lobby exists as a digital/spiritual place, could our nightmares live there too?
