518    Originally produced by University of Southern California 
       Cinematic Arts in 2014. 
520    After seeing the smoke from an explosion on the horizon, 
       an old weathered man leaves his island and goes to explore
       it in his airboat. At the site of the explosion he finds a
       pile of garbage and dead animals floating in the water. 
       Suddenly there is another explosion and something shoots 
       into the air like a rocket. The man goes to the source and
       finds a case of jars with some Chinese characters on the 
       side. Inside the jar is a buzzing insect. A thought bubble
       appears from the jar and the man releases the insect. It 
       immediately begins attacking him, finally exploding into 
       the side of his head leaving an X shaped gash. Recognizing
       them as dangerous, the man tries to kill the next insect 
       by pumping poison into its jar. Just when it appears dead,
       the insect starts to shake and the jar explodes into the 
       man's hand. The motor of the air boat is ignited and the 
       boat shoots into the air. When next we see the man, he is 
       laying in the shallow water by the island, unconscious. 
       The poison in the water begins seeping into the X gash and
       suddenly the man is sucked into a terrifying, psychedelic 
       transformation. He flies through space and time and his 
       cells are re-worked. After this ordeal, the man stands up 
       in the water and looks toward his island. In the setting 
       sun, he can see the palm trees begin to lift off from the 
       ground and float into the sky. Official Selection at the 
       **Sundance Film Festival** and **SXSW Film Festival**.
