“The Dreaded Blaargh!” – film information
When time travel goes offline…
An homage to silent film, where four time-travelers get stuck in the same time travel waiting room as the time travel system suddenly goes offline. An announcement about an epidemic has them worried, scrambling for other-worldly remedies without questioning their proponents. While the time travel system tries to resolve its internal error, there is no way of avoiding the spread of the epidemic, inter-historical developments and attitudes, with possible implications for future generations.
Through humour, this film, with an all-female cast and female crew in key creative roles, explores technology advancement and the apparent lack of consideration for consequences. The film also passes the Bechdel Test with flying colors!
