Lapsis

61st TIFF: Greek premiere

In a present-day retro-futuristic universe, Ray is struggling financially, while his ailing brother needs expensive care. Left out of options he takes a shady job of laying out cable through miles of wild forest for a new-tech company. Faced with a mysterious–yet not unfounded–hostility by his co-workers, Ray must pick a side: it’s either with the exploiters or the exploited. A blue-collar sci-fi sparkled with comedic absurdity, that blasts corporate greed.
