Cool (free) short film (each episode is like 5 to 10 minutes) - going to be 7 episodes in total.

All right ... what did I just watch? ;) Past the point where he wakes up the crew of the "Atropa", the rest makes no sense. :|

Apropos of nothing at all, let me make a prediction: someone, at some point, will suffer from blurred vision, dry eyes/mouth, and/or decreased sweating -- or heart trouble. ;) Why do I say that? because "Atropa" reminds me very much of atropine, which is a medicine for heart trouble -- and the above symptoms (i.e. blurred vision, dry eyes, dry mouth, decreased sweating etc.) are all side-effects of atropine. Too much atropine, like any other drug, can easily be fatal.

(I know about atropine because I've read many Agatha Christie books, and she - being a trained nurse, and thus an expert on drugs, before she became an author - used it in at least four of her mysteries. Here's a real-life case involving it).

Sorry to digress. But still, half the episode made no sense. :(

Yes, I get that. But what just happened? He wakes up the crew, they ask him who he is, the woman seems to recognise him, and then... they see themselves floating out in space? :shock: Is that right?

Yes, because the Research Ship seems to be adrift. I can't remember if it's the first or second episode where they talk about the date. So I don't want to spoil it.

Also, 7th (final) episode came out today!

Rewatched this (was on an old discord server I posted this on that reminded me about it)... still enjoyed it.
