    "WAIT AND REMAIN is a short thriller made by Columbia College students in Fictional Cinema Production, a class that I have taught many times and it is easily one of the top short films that I've seen in many years. What stands out is the suspense and the creation of an alternate reality. It will drop on YouTube in a couple of weeks, but in the meantime, please check the trailer and then the movie--it is like a short Black Mirror episode!" - Michael Caplan via Linkedin ( https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7444090090747830272/?originTrackingId=82YqSSEL592sPmLOQ7K7ow%3D%3D )

The Infernal Machine

Reclusive and controversial author Bruce Cogburn is drawn out of hiding by an obsessive fan, forcing the novelist to confront a past that he thought he could escape, and to account for events set in motion by his bestseller decades earlier. Cogburn's search for who is behind the manipulation and mental torment he encounters leads to an emotional roller-coaster ride full of fear and danger, where things are not always as clear as they seem to be, and where past deeds can have dire consequences.
