Synopsis/Details
(Video pitch available). The year is 2311. Less Jetsons world, more film noir from the 1940s. Humphrey, a mattress salesman, and lover of dames and humanoids of the curvier variety, is murdered. But this is not the end for Humphrey. He's brought back to life for seventy-two hours to partake in an elaborate "Repeaters" trial as a witness in his own murder case. However, things are not as they seem, and Humphrey becomes the pawn in a futuristic game of chess where his life is the prize.
