In November 2013 The Guardian issued a challenge to filmmakers through their Witness page to create a superheor film no more than sixty seconds in length. My entry did not win but I later returned to it and made an improved 'director's cut' version with additional footage and music and improved visual effects. Here's the result:

Cast:
Max O'Donoghue
Elaine Wong
Howard Gardner

Zachary Gardner

Written and directed by: Howard Gardner
