Very good. The story was concise and thought-provoking--like SF from 50 or 70 years ago. It asks questions (without actually asking them) that make us think about the limits of technology and our place in the universe. I miss stories like this.
The acting was, obviously, of high calibre.
The cinematography caught my attention, without taking me out of the story. I appreciate how it starts out with wider shots as we're introduced to the situation, and then slowly tightens in as the story becomes more personal--eventually being all close-ups of the 3 characters as they deal with the situation. only to pull back as the doctor returns to being clinical.
Kudos to all involved.

I'm a professor of quantum physics and dark matter. OK, now we know that this is a Sci-Finction movie. How many black people work in tech companies as engineers How many black professors of quantum physics exist in the world No one that I know of. Africacentrism is everywhere these days. I mean, a few days ago Netflix made also Hannibal Barca black, after Cleopatra, all the ancient Egyptians, the Vikings, the Romans, British kings and Queens, the ancient British people from 10, 000 years ago, etc. Next month the new Netflix series: The black Japanese king.

yee i always wonder if my atoms are transferred from one place to other in a wire or some radiaton and assemble on other side the same way will that be me i don't thint that will be ME but this movie open another way to think he is right that when we sleep, we shutdown our conciousness so what am i when i wake up next day is that ME strange is there any experiment to test this
reply

Well, problem of is sleep si little death have bothered me for long time. Is I who wake up is I who fell asleep Even if body same is i is same instance of I Such ideas can really make you insomniac, believe me. However science now say your conscience is NOT turned off when you sleep, its just slowed down and stripped of everything except core. You today is probably same you as it was yesterday.
reply

Would have been better extending it by 5 minutes more to complete the transfer to the clone and have him wake up amazed that they infact saved him and put him in a new body and he realising he his still him down to the minute detail. that would show the audience that this scientist figured out how to replicate down to the quantum level.
reply

Wonderful short sci-fi. can't applaud it any better than others have in these comments. ditto that the story is very well done, and acting is spot on. Loved Rutger Hauer's performance as Roy in Blade Runner, and also as Captain Navarre in Lady Hawke. Wish i'd known him as a friend. All my best wishes to all of you aficionados.
reply

Wow that is. amazing, I feel so sad for him. It really makes you think what differentiates us from one another if we ever cloned ourselves. A clone can never be used to transfer our souls over to another, I think--like funerals--it is just reassurance for the living that one does not truly pass away.
reply

Look I enjoyed it, and Rutger Hauer as great as ever. But the storyline is ludicrous. You have a briefing with your surgeon before a major operation. You understand what’s intended and what the complications might be. It’s not a conversation you have on the operating table under anaesthesia.
reply

if we did try to transfer someone into a new body or new mind, what if it's just a brand new mind that has downloaded memories of some now dead guy. and there would be no good way of knowing for sure if the true self is dead or not.
reply

Very good production dust and the best actor in the universe appeared in one of your films. The production is crisp and surreal also thrilling and enigmatic, thought provoking, mind alternating and fun more more more please!
reply

Why is a man with a 442 IQ just now figuring out what is about to happen to him And why is he arguing that this procedure doesn't work when they have clearly performed this procedure successfully many times before
reply

Great acting by all three cast members. Rutger added to the talent. Great story but you know what I would have liked to see how the clone reacted once woken up. To the writer and director as well
reply

While praying he generated an essential memory.
The idea that he is a clone with the sole purpose of shutting down that whole company or whatever entity did this.
I'd like to see that movie.

Life Imitating Art:
Rutger Hauer played a character in the film Blade Runner. His character dies in the year 2019 as did he, in real life.
R. I. P Rutger Hauer. You and your art are missed.

reply

With space stuff human behaviors can be a facted of space souls of losted ones! Then the weaker underground takes control of humans in omans generations! Lol life on earth is all unknown to the androids!
reply

this is almost the same discussion regarding Star Trek’s transportation technology.
are you the same person on the planet as the one that just beamed from the transporter pad on the ship

reply

Some bits of this sounded Bladerunner LOL, I wonder if that was deliberate But very well done, how would you know if you were a clone, just from having exact same memories in your brain
reply

So great to see Rutger Hauer who was criminally underrated by Hollywood, Nothing new though sadly, great to see him still with a glint in his eye, rest in power sir,
reply

Brilliant! Award worthy production and special effects, great story, wonderful acting and add the late, great, legendary Rutger Hauer. Absolute masterpiece.
reply

Some other worlds built that nice thinks for earth to work with on a higher level not exceeding 6selections! For others selecting is to much! Lol smh humans behavior
reply

Only seen Rutger in Blade Runner. Scared the heck out of me. He scared me in this. He has an interesting entry in Wikipedia. He’ll live forever on film.
reply

I remember The Blade Runner and saw it when it came out. Wow, that last scene on the roof in the rain. I'll always remember that part. Outstanding movie.
reply

Mankind's greatest sin is letting men convince us that they are Gods, and end up worshipping disease. Our ancestors would be so disappointed.
reply

Fascinating, and very scary. Rutger Hauer, what an actor. Who can forget his final, touching lines in Bladerunner. Class actor, sadly missed.
reply

Does anyone understand what this is about or what What nonsense. Like they made a copy for a clone but killed it. idiocy. what for
reply

Iys good but. Rutger is obviously old. I dunno, is that pure age or he was supposed to act like this but i felt like he is tired: (
reply

Why is the doctor wearing SFC stripes on his shoulders Is it some kind of inside joke Either way, unprofessional.
reply

Sounds like Cloning for the New World Order which is in place. Data mining for AI by microwave technology
reply

When there's a fire in the building. It's not the fire that kills you. It's the Panic that kills you.
reply

Someone made a movie of the things I think about while trying to fall asleep during a bipolar episode
reply

Tip of the hat, good to see Rutger! And that soundtrack Immediately took me back to 2001: A Space Odyssey.
reply

What are you saying That I'm a clone - What I'm saying is, I've seen things you people wouldn't believe
reply

I love the concept of artificial gravity but can it ever be accomplished clones can be accomplished
reply

Loved that space station. That's the sort of thing we should be gradually be working on.
reply

Strong start, it was weird to hear someone say my lifelong paranoia out loud like this.
