Swiped may only be 3-minutes but it’s one of the most memorable free short films that you’ll see.

This sci-fi has a very familiar setting. The film may not make the most sense at first but by the end everything will come together. Angel One is a low budget sci fi short about two pilots fighting for their lives and for glory. But not all is as it seems. The film’s budget was $100 and was shot entirely in a basement.
