A couple’s dream apartment comes with a surprise time portal in The Move, a quirky short film starring Dustin Milligan and Amanda Crew. Watch now!
Imagine this: you’re finally moving into your dream apartment with your significant other, and everything feels just right… until you stumble upon a tiny hiccup. Actually, “hiccup” might be underselling it— “time portal” is more like it. Now, would you stick around or run for the hills? That’s the exact dilemma in The Move, a short film starring Dustin Milligan and Amanda Crew. Written and directed by Eric Kissack, this quirky gem will leave you asking, “Would I stay?” Watch and find out!
The rundown:
Todd is excited to move into a new place with his girlfriend. They’re moving into Todd’s dream place, but he’s also slightly anxious since he and Kate were having some relationship “hiccups” before they decided to live together.
But as they move in, they discover a strange portal that transports them just a few feet ahead in their space. Todd is freaked out by the portal and wants nothing to do with it. But Kate is fascinated by it, and she wants to stay in the apartment with it. The portal becomes a flashpoint for the pair, with their differences coming to the fore and the couple reaching a turning point in their relationship.
Directed and written by Eric Kissack, this quirky yet relatable sci-fi relationship dramedy is an entertaining, engaging snapshot of a couple openly hashing out their differences, thanks to the presence of a divisive interdimensional portal. Dustin Milligan (SCHITT’S CREEK) and Amanda Crew (SILICON VALLEY) play the couple at the center of the conflict in this two-hander, with Milligan playing the anxious, verbose Todd, who is the opposite of the calmer, competent Kate.
