"Something Real" - a Culture Fanfilm...

This very well made, well written, reasonably well acted, and entertaining fanfilm is inspired directly by the Iain M. Banks Culture series. 7 minutes of this is more inspired and entertaining than 150 minutes of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. :P

Poverty is not a wrong, but taking money from those who have it to equalize incomes is basically theft, which is wrong.' - Typical Randroid

Even though this was made quite a long time before Matter was published, the vast interior space of a GSV they were likely in seems surprisingly similar to the inhabited levels of a Shellworld, with the unseen vaulted roof propped up by gigantic pillars.
