À propos de ce film

PLATO'S REALITY MACHINE is an ensemble portrait of the modern relationship, as it currently exists in the wilds of New York. Three men: Charles, Josie and Scott, and three women: Maggie, Kim, and Zoe, crash into each other in a tangled web of late nights, painful mornings, hurt feelings and one ill-advised trip to a strip club. It’s a non-linear story of ex-girlfriends and brand new boyfriends, of one night stands and single men getting cats. It’s a story of the timeless quest for a real human connection, however short-lived. A mysterious video-game adventure interweaves with reality television inspired confessionals and traditional narrative stories to offer a fresh and modern twist on the relationship movie. Get ready to get lost. Lost in the game, lost in love, lost in Plato’s Reality Machine.

Notes et avis

Myles Sorenson creates one of the year's best indies; an inventive story of rich intersecting characters on the modern quest for truth, love and fulfillment. Trieste Kelly Dunn heads an amazing cast. Great writing, photography and direction.

Storyline goes nowhere. Characterization is nonexistent. Themes are played out. Simply not good... at all.
