This may or may not be of interest to folks here: a serious sci-fi short starring Pamela Anderson.

We here at Motherboard are thrilled to present the debut of Connected, a short film directed by Luke Gilford, starring Pamela Anderson and Dree Hemingway, and narrated by Jane Fonda.

Set in a stark, occasionally ominous near-future, Connected marks a major departure for the world's most famous sex symbol: Anderson turns in a raw, brave performance as a beauty queen who's aging under the harsh glow of her screens and feeds, drifting from her followers, friends, and family, and desperately seeking, yes, connection.

She plays Jackie, an AuraCycle workout instructor who performs for an online audience and listens to self-help podcasts (voiced by Fonda) that promise eternal life in a fast-approaching new world. Jackie heads to a wellness retreat that's both cultishly out-there and eerily verisimilar to improve her connectivity, where okay, just watch it yourself.

Dr. Acula, your on a roll! This is the third post you've made (out of your first four posts) that called my attention to something I didn't even know about!

Cool! Cool

YouTube has it, and I've already downloaded it with Savefrom.net. Looking forward to watching it.

* Click on the poster for the Youtube video.

I watched this video again for the first time in eight years, and even though I'm still not sure what it's about, I do admire the way it was produced. Very Happy

Maybe some of All Sci-Fi's members who are smarter than me can help me out.

Watch it, please, and take shot at it, guys. All Sci-Fi could sure use some new contributions. Very Happy
