I've delayed this as far as I could, but it seems this film is not to be found anywhere on the net (yet). Until then. . .

is all about providing the audience with a sense of grand illusionism.

Francis, a humble clerk and a self-taught inventor had it all, it seemed:
a big house in a small town, a lot of free time and a loving wife.
His invention is supposed to change the world. He forgot about one thing:
dreams always cost too much. He is focused only on himself and his work
and realizes the gravity of the situation only when it is too late.
