Travel to Another Dimension

If we have the ability to travel to another dimension, then we can travel through different spaces to somewhere we wanted to go. However, most people get excited for this ability are the people who wanted to escape their current living situation. People live miserably and hope they can get out from the current situation to a new place. The new place will bring them joy and freedom.

Recently found a short film been shared around, which tells the story of a prisoner found a way to travel to another dimension then he can escape from the prison. Without listening to the advice of the old man, very excited of him just run off from the prison and then get caught again from the current dimension.

This short film is the winner of the BAFTA for short film 2014, entitled Room 8.

The tone of the short film is dark and steady pace. It tells story of the protagonist found hope to escape the prison, but having an unfortunate ending. Giving the feel of goosebumps when you follow the story until the end. Questions are popping out: is this is the way to prison? how was the dimension or space of the room works? will the human size become even smaller after escaping from the original room?

Since, it is a short film, many details can't be told, whereas Room 8 just wanted to tell the consequence of the protagonist life. The matches box shown from the early of the short film had told the answer. We might get curios about the meaning of the shacking matches box, but when the story start to escalate to the end, we realist the hope of the many prisoner had trapped into the matches box.

The following short film brings another tone to the theme of travelling to another dimension. Although, it is set similar to the Room 8 about the consequence of the prisoner, but this short film is more to action and sci-fi genre. This short film is Portal: No Escape.

A woman wakes up in a room with no memory, found lock in the room like prison until she found a weapon can help her travel around with the portal that had made. It is a good opportunity for her to escape from the prison. In the end, after fighting with the guards, she realize she had already in another prison all the while. There is no way out for her.

A never ending prison for her life was miserable, though she got a little hope for the weapon she found to escape. The short film tells more action genre where machinery and combat are available. The excitement was there when we follow her to escape from the prison, then come a twist that no one able to leave form the prison.

For the 3rd short film to recommend is entitled Black Hole. The earliest short film watched compared to last 2 short films. Just less than 3 minutes of the film had made me feel pity for the guy. Greed leads to ignorant, and lead him to a sad ending.

An ordinary guy feeling miserably working lately at the office, and suddenly a photocopy machine print out a copy of black hole. He then found out this black hole able him to pass through a wall and get things he wanted. When his greedy thought started to kick in, he went to the safe box and try carry out all the money in it. Desperately of taking out all the money in it, without thinking, all of his body had went in the safe box, then the paper just unattached and left him inside the safe box.

A strong moral value can be learn from the short film, telling about the consequences of being greedy. Without using music but just natural sound has resonate out the daily life of a lot of white collar workers. A great escape for people want to escape their mundane life, and get smack back again to be realistic. This guy was so happy after finding the ability of the black hole, from frustrating emotion to curios and greedy to get away from his original life. Well written for this short film, simple yet it can bring dramatic effect on us.
