quietearth [Celluloid 01.06.08] movie news scifi



This is seriously frustating, I read about this movie like 6 months ago, it was originally scheduled for summer 2006, then it moved to October 31st, 2007, and nothing since. The director has put up posts on his myspace blog but.. where is it? It's a low budget dna hacking film starring the ever-flexible Bai Ling (think Southland Tales) and it looks simply stunning.. but will we ever get to see it? From this recent blog post, it looks like a big YES. They have signed on with Traction Media as a sales rep for the film, and will hopefully be making some moves soon, although I have to tell you this can be a very long process before we get to see the film. Trust me, I've been waiting on one flick for 9 months now, the rep still hasn't sold the distro rights. You can check the synopsis and trailer below.

"In a futuristic world, Michelle lives everyday battling with DNA Hackers who use their skills to hack into people's bodies and kill them. She is an assassin, battling her past demons and trying to keep her younger and extroverted brother, Jackie, out of trouble. When Jackie gets involved in a petty crime of robbery, he propels himself into the world of DNA Hackers, Shylocks (Loan Sharks) and Gang Fights. Wanting the respect that the world has never given to him only makes it harder for Jackie to peel himself away from the underground trades, against the hopes of his sister, Michelle. Michelle always wanted to leave the city and lead a calm and quiet lifestyle. As emotions and gunfire get into the way, Michelle and Jackie soon find themselves battling between their lives and finding out that in an immoral world, love can still survive; and that blood is thicker than water."
