‘uTransfer’ is an insightful glimpse that ties the many threads of sci-fi, technology, systemic racism, and immigrant realities together. The year is 2088 and the protagonist, Dean Flores, presents to us a world where he is trying to upload his consciousness to a parallel realm, created and supported by technology. The utopic ‘New World’ requires you to clear an exhaustive questionnaire before you are approved for the transfer. He hopes to be reunited with his dead brother in the process.

The short film utilizes a fixed physical space, complete with its gadgets and devices, to portray all of this for the viewer via its predominantly single-cast set-up. The performance and writing become its most notable components, along with the screenplay, which remains tight and efficient and does not waste a single beat in delineating this world. <br><br>

The endeavor also presents an entire spectrum of emotions - from anger, loss, and tragedy, to ideas of justice and systemic racism. The end result that is eventually offered to the viewer becomes a sincere result that exhibits deep potential for more storytelling and engagement of the same kind.
