Death, playing God, a new society: all in a days work: Smash-Cuts supreme, 7 February 2002
9/10
Author: Ryan J. Gilmer (ryanjgilmer007@aol.com) from Plymouth, MN, USA

This short is on a Smash-Cuts video short fest floating around somewhere and it is well worth the rent or buy.

The story is a little complex, but the short is only 10 minutes, it flows evenly and gentle of the subject matter and it still is very fulfilling and thought provoking.

The story is set in the future, in a society that basically puts the power of life and death into the hands of one person. The only catch is that if you grant life, then your life is taken, and if you grant death, then your morals are taken. In this society, power is your goal, but at what price (the price of liberty, morality, life, love, or all).

In this society is one woman, who is young and beautiful, who wants to advance in society, but whom is vehemently against the having the power to decide death, she also is in love with a man, whom has similar aspirations, but more questionable morals.

Eventually, the woman is told that her promotion grants her the power and that the phone of clemency never rings.

Life and death is in her hands and we await her decision because its on the Air and Time is wasting.

Rating: 9 (is needs to be longer to get a 10, but it is very close)
