The ancient mechanical tomb has finally been opened. Lurking beneath the twisted metal and decaying pipes is a treasure… and a monster. A young man descends into the depths, desperate and alone, and unprepared for the darkness he finds within. Two creative forces came together in the fall of 2018 in an effort to create something eye catching, ear pleasing, that would make a lasting impact on as many viewers as possible. Jacob Richter and Peter Jones are both parents of young children, deeply involved in the arts, and both have an appreciation for the duality of life. The potential for beauty contains the potential for disgust, life turns to death, expansion fights contraction. Their first film together explores the emotional journey of a young man. Symbols from the idea of a wife held hostage by pregnancy and childbirth are combined with a tormenting, foreboding monster, as the young man explores his fears, shortcomings, and anxieties of becoming a father.
