EXODUS - Episode 3

Written & Directed by Tyson Wade Johnston
Cinematography by Macgregor

Synopsis:
Those with means flee a climate-ravaged Earth, seeking refuge in the stars. Those without are left behind, holding onto hope.

Director Quote:
With Exodus, I wanted to tell the story of a family trapped in a vicious generational cycle. Real people with simple aspirations, pinned down by the overwhelming forces of class and capitalism.

    A nice look at those on the short end of the stick in something like Interstellar. Not everyone gets out.

    Bleak. Grim. Raw. Sad. Realistic. Absolutely heartbreaking and captivating. The last moments really hit me in a way I haven't felt in a long time.

    F*ck, so strong messages: Poverty, opportunities, hope, th system, believing to be selected, passing the way of the thinking to the next generation, and nothing changes. This, this 4 minutes, gave me goosebumps
  • @OrbitalShell
    Bravo, what a story of where so many of us are in our lives Waiting to graduate, waiting to marry, waiting to have kids, waiting to for the lottery that will save us from a dying planet. BRAVO
  • @mantheking
    Watched three of these Thousand Suns episodes so far, and this hit hard. Only 3 minutes to tell a story, and it was told so effectively, and with such economy!
  • @DrTubeman
    Brilliant, "A Thousand Suns" is a outstanding mini series and I'm only at episode 3.
  • @chrisfheins
    What a great soundtrack! Top notch quality!
  • @Berniesf
    This is fucking bloody awesome! it makes me wonder? WTF happened to cinema? bad after bad movies, remakes, uninteresting and boring to death. What happened to originality? We want, we NEED stuff like this, that makes us be glued to the screen. fucking brilliant.
  • @vntd_knb
    Oh my God, this is the best short film I've ever seen. There is such a deep meaning in such a short video
  • I have no idea how this is on youtube but I'm so glad! It's incredible, INCREDIBLE!
  • @israrbinmi2856
    that's so sad, advice from a guy living in a shit place rn, if you see the opportunity to leave, leave, and don't listen to anyone who says otherwise. It isn't worth it committing your life to a shit place because that shit place won't ever commit anything to you
  • @DanKoerner
    So powerful. This is the sort of feature length sci-fi we all deserve
  • @kvasac123
    Brilliant. So much packed in 4 minutes.
  • @NEVERAGAIN007
    You guys are off the chain!!!!! This is beyond amazing!!!!!!
  • @AdrianoGazza
    Absolutely incredible. Beautifully shot, great acting, powerful and simple story. More emotion packed into under 5 minutes than some features! Love this series!
  • I just binge watched the first three of these in the last fifteen minutes. These are genuinely good and have the feel of the early 1960 Outer Limits TV show. Excellent work from BlackMilk Studio! Keep it up, you have a hit in the making! Kudos!

    Humans still alive in 2091 what a hopeful story.
