A man , fooled by his friend, is prisoner , using a time travel machine, in the beginning of XIX century. A device gives him the opportunity to talk with presumed friend, after a short escape. But the words from the XXI century are far to give comfort.
The end seems so brutal - the excuse of short film works not so easy in this case - than the film seems only a sketch.
But , sure, the moral saves , in some measure, the story , improvised at the first sight, and the cinematography is just helpful. And, indeed, michael Parker makes a beautiful effort for give credibility to the prisoner in strange age.
