For The Plasma, dir. Bingham Bryant & Kyle Molzan, USA 2014, 94 min
Book tickets
At a remote house on the coast of Maine, Helen monitors the surrounding woodland for forest fires. She believes the surveillance footage also allows her to predict movements in global financial markets. When her friend Charlie arrives to assist her, their shared task becomes an increasingly uncertain exercise in seeing and believing.
By turns comic and disquieting, For the Plasma makes perception itself the basis of a speculative fiction, asking what happens when the same image offers radically different accounts of the world.
