Project Arbiter a Terrific WWII Sci-Fi Short Film
February 11th, 2014Project Arbiter is a terrific short film written and directed by Michael Chance. Check out the trailer above and the full 22-minute film below. This film is really well done and is well worth watching through to the end. The film seems positioned for a sequel so we’ll look for that anxiously.
Synopsis: 1943. Thousands of feet above Northern Europe a small plane carries a skeleton crew of the Allies best, including special operative captain Joseph Colburn. His handler, major Thomas Hardy does a final review of the mission’s grim intel: infiltrate a mysterious villa on the Polish border and uncover its secrets. Colburn emerges donning a prototype suit, which can temporarily render its user invisible. As the plane’s bay doors howl open Colburn begins to put on the skull-faced helmet when the plane is rocked by an anti-aircraft shell. Rapidly losing air pressure and altitude, now there’s no question… This is a one-way mission.
