Film Synopsis:

On one level Ripple is a Science Fiction story about the consequences of what would happen if a large star that was in close proximity to our solar system were to implode on itself.  If the gamma rays radiation did not kill all life on earth how would the ‘Ripple’ in the Space/Time Continuum that Einstein postulated effect mankind?  The last three people on earth struggle with the altered reality they face, as one by one they disappear from the universe. Or do they?

 On another level the movie asks, are we real? What is the meaning of life and death, and the universal question, which remains unanswered? Why?

Filmed in Indianapolis In July 2002
