Award Winning Short Film: The Man With the Spying Glass

A short film about Placit who lives in a dreamless society where people have to take pills to stop dreaming and thinking. Almost everyone wears helmets, which gives the global government access to human thoughts.
Placit’s most profound dream is to be a puppeteer. However, he is afraid to go against the system which was created by his father and vigorously defended by Placit’s cynical self.
