Sci-Fi Short Film “Lucid Nation“ | DUST

Explore the DUST Multiverse on our App: Two middle-schoolers try an experiment at home involving ping pong balls, red light, and white noise. “Lucid Nation“ by Stephen Turselli Connect with the Filmmakers: More About “Lucid Nation“: Best friends Henry and Josh attempt an experiment at home that they learned about in school. After stealing a red light bulb from the school’s dark room, they cover their eyes with ping pong balls and listen to white noise in an effort to get their mind to hallucinate. After a few failed trials, Josh concedes that it’s just a silly experiment. However, Henry is convinced that, with a few adjustments, it could still work. Each night after school for the next few days, Henry tinkers and perfects the parameters of his experiment. He blacks out his window, he glues the ping pong balls onto swim goggles. He adds more and more light bulbs to the array on his desk. Eventually, he builds a turbo-headset, designed to amplify all sights and sounds coming to it. When he tries the experiment for a final time, Henry goes too far before he realizes he’s not coming back.
