Mr Roberts finds himself awoken inexplicably
in a white room. A man sits before him at a
desk and in between them stands a black
button. If Mr Roberts pushes it, he will
receive a briefcase filled with millions of
dollars. Or he can take the key to the door
and leave penniless. The catch? Pushing the
button will result in the death of a human
being. What would you do?
EDIT 1: Some people have observed a
similarity in the premise of this film and an
revival episode of The Twilight Zone in 1986.
Please note (1) We had never seen the episode
and only learned of it long after we'd
finished the film. (2) The Twilight Zone
weren't the first to do it. There was a short
story before that, which was in turn based on
an old premise called the 'Faustian Bargain',
around since the 16th century (deal with the
'devil'). An almost identical premise exists
in several cultures. Richard Kelly is even
making a film with this premise called 'The
Box'. (3) Our film is similar in premise, but
different in plot, characters, dialogue,
aesthetics, setting, moral meaning, religious
undertone, twist etc. Each version, including
ours, aims to bring something new to an old
idea. Please have the respect to not accuse
us of plagiarism.
Additionally, we have no particular religious
affiliation; this is a fictional work and its
ideas are designed to encourage thought and
debate, not comment on any particular
theology.
Our first professional short film. We made it
for $200 and shot it on the stage of our old
school in Melbourne, Australia. Fortunately,
professional actor Robert Grubb agreed to act
in it for free after reading the script. This
film took nearly a year to put together,
working on it in stages and creating the
'white' effect on a home PC. Please note that
the younger actor, unlike his father Robert
Grubb, has no formal acting training
whatsoever.
The Making of "Black Button" is now on
YouTube.
Two of our other shorts have been released on
YouTube, 'Campsite' and 'The Window'. Click
