Earl and Joel are living on their farm together. Joel's unusual hobby, interstellar subspace amateur radio, leads to some tensions between the two brothers as well as to important consequences for Earth. Or does it?

Maybe the point of this science fiction short film is its pointlessness. Or maybe it isn't, and more is going on than Earl and Joel realize? Are the brothers too gullible? Should they have pressed their compensation claim with the NC-lala agents who claimed not to have received relevant training?

This short film reminds me of mid-20th century American science fiction short stories. Like this film, they were often centered more on how future technology might affect ordinary humans than on the technology itself or on porting traditional adventure stories to a future context.
