Promising .......

The film ended earlier than I expected

In a good way I suppose as I was waiting for more. Does it need to be resolved or is it going on all around us.

If you don't get it then simply swap the cable laying for say driving an Uber or delivering parcels.

Great performances and the film certainly was very well produced, if it makes you think then I guess it worked as a movie.

Prime delivery.

Viewing the trailers for the online Grimmfest film festival,I was interested in how off-beat this movie appeared,in comparison to the rest of the line-up,which led to me laying down the cable.

View on the film:

Cleverly going for a parallel present,rather than future, in order to keep the sci-Fi technology grounded in realism, composer/editor/writer/director Noah Hutton & cinematographer Mike Gomes post an earthy low-key atmosphere shining from the sun shimmering on the leaves as elegant tracking shots track Ray (played by Dean Imperial in a wonderful debut film performance) laying down cable, with the buzz and red lights of the machines keeping track of his work never far behind.

Taking on a new gig in order to cover the medical bills of his brother,the screenplay by Hutton records a biting commentary on the gig economy against a satirical dystopia Sci-Fi backdrops of apps punishing anyone who does not meet their targets,with the company pushing for each of them to become worker drones who lay down the cable without any opportunity being given for them to take a break.

Entering with a rather single-minded outlook that makes excuses for the low pay and poor conditions the company treats its workers to, Hutton unrolls breezy comedic Mumblecore dialogue that links Ray closer to his co-workers, and overcomes the obstacles the company places around them, in order to make their new gig be the forming of a union.

I Adjusted So I Tolerated It

DVD lacked subtitles for the elderly, disabled, hearing impaired, and ESL viewers. Disrespectful & cheap on the part of the producers especially when audio & enunciation is poor. No excuse even if low budget.

First 1/2 hr. Or so I'm rating it 1 star, but as it continued, unfortunately boringly, I did see some concepts being presented although the messenger (just cable laying) denigrates the message. Basic premise is that many are being paid minimum to work for wealthy monopolies, semi-monopolies, etc. At risk of health as workers are either being roboticised or replaced by tech. Yes, nothing new there. Yes, wealth disparity continues to widen.

Negatives: 90% of film time is laying cable through the woods to grandma's house; well actually just a large cube the cable plugs into; in the middle of nowhere. Made no sense. The references to quantum mechanics made no sense. The competition mini robotics pulling 1/2 mile of cable through woods - not possible, & comical.

Positive: Acting was good, but as believable as the little robot cable pullers.
