Primer
Shane Carruth is the writer/director and plays one of two lead characters Aaron who resembles Special Agent Fox Mulder from the X Files. David Sullivan plays Abe his adventurous techie friend who has been working with him in a garage during all his spare time on a device of unknown potential and use. Abe decides to run some tests by himself and finds some interesting results that he shares only with Aaron with the caveat that what he will see is in no way a joke. They proceed into a laboratory, which confused the hell out of me and then to a point right outside a u-haul storage facility. Finally shown what it was Abe was eluding too, Aaron probes for the exact details on how he performed such a feat and decides to follow where only his friend has gone. From here it starts out as a personal wealth attempt that turns abyss by the inability to control every circumstance and the realization that they have been followed.
I think this movie is very creative and I enjoyed the challenge of weeding through all the technical stuff to find just a smidgen of what was going on.
I think you should read as little as possible about the invention so when it is reveled it provides a nice break from all the technical talk.
