(Zach Weintraub, Portland, OR, 71 min)
Northwest Premiere!

When the opportunity to become test subjects for the the questionable multinational corporation EvCorp arises, both Rob and Austyn jump at the chance to make a little extra cash. But when Austyn is accepted and hidden away from the rest of world, Rob fears that he might have led his friend into a trap, navigating both guilt and denial. Meanwhile, the town is dramatically divided over the presence of the corporation in the small town, half the town enjoying the economic benefits EvCorp brings, the other suspecting that the company has less-than-virtuous motives. Longtime Local Sightings filmmaker Zach Weintraub brings his latest work home to the Northwest after premiering at Locarno.
