A few years back, director Darren Scales and his dedicated team produced The Drift, a full length space-set science fiction film made for £5k. More impressive than it being so cheap was that it was actually pretty good (our review is up on this very site), and as any film fan these days knows, something being actually, you know, pretty good and not just the sum of ‘brilliant marketing x underwhelming product regular disappointment’ is getting sadly rare.
For short film Edge of the Storm, Scales is continuing to expand upon the DARKWAVE concept established in The Drift. Over 100 years in the future, humankind has colonised space using faster-than-light crystals. The 'darkwave' was a catastrophic event some decades earlier, which destroyed this capability and left colonies devastated as well as ships stranded throughout explored space.
