SciFi Short Written and Directed by Giacomo Cimini
Based on Daniel H. Wilson’s short story by the same name, “The Nostalgist” is a fascinating look into the nature of reality. Perhaps you have heard of Daniel Wilson; he is the author of the hugely popular Robopocalypse novels. If you are interested, you can read the story which served as the basis for the film here on Tor. The flick was well received and won a slew of awards including second place in the 2014 Palm Springs International Festival of Short Films for the category of Best Short Film over 15 minutes.
The characters in this story live in a futuristic city filled with violence and death. You can escape this misery by wearing ImmerSyst Eyes & Ears to filter out the grunge that is reality and replace it with a perfect vision of the world. When a father’s pair of glasses begins to fail, he is forced to venture out into the real world to get a new pair.
