Director: John Paol Olsen.
A vastly different, oblique take on the man-walks-into-a-bar story. Gus Lorenz is known to some as a trade expert. He embarks on a journey to find himself and to locate what is missing from his life. The answer seems
to lie in bowels of an old speakeasy. It is here that he engages in trade. A train ticket provides his sole means of
travel. This troubled man's travel is not along rail lines, but rather across neural synapses.
The real trade expert may be at arm's length or locked inside his subconscious being.
If Gus Lorenz is the man that the girl of his dreams says he is, then perhaps the only thing he has lost
is his true identity.
This short science fiction film was shot on location in San Francisco, California as part of the 48-Hour Film Festival.
