This movie was totally under the radar at Swaziland's Golden Lion Film Festival. I didn't know what to expect coming into it. At first, I was skeptical to see David Michaels attempt a drama because his past movies were comedies ("Growing Up Simon", "Dilbert & Cromwell Present", etc.). 

Much to my surprise (and enjoyment), "Distance" blew me away. After the festival, I bought three copies of the DVD and two autographed posters from Martin Cohen and Russ Varriale. 

I highly recommend this film to anyone who is interested in the human struggle against nature and the coldness of the universe. I can't wait to see what their production company (Star- Crossed Pictures - I think) comes out with next. 

I heard rumors of projects being filmed as early as December 2006.

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.
