Goodbye, World! Poster

Goodbye, World!

1m/1f | Ten-minute

June — 52. A bit world-weary, a bit disheveled, but with love and a glimmer of hope in her eyes. The protector.
Duncan — 24. Hardened, determined. Feels most comfortable in a suit. The destroyer.


DUNCAN
She doesn't care about you, June. She is a mess of wire. She is metal. She thinks of you as her janitor, her nurse. She doesn’t even know who you are.

JUNE
Okay, you can go now.

DUNCAN
I'm only telling you what you already know, June.

JUNE
No, I -- I wanted to be nice and polite and not hurt your feelings, but you've just gone way over the line and so, I have to... I have to --

DUNCAN
You have to what? Are you afraid she's listening to us?


Description

The Internet has just been born. June is its protector. Duncan wants to destroy it. Who will win? We know who. But how?
