This is one of the best short scifi films I’ve ever seen - at only 3 minutes long, I can’t really describe the plot without giving too much away. But take a look - it’s really quite awesome. [And I Refuse To Forget | MetaFilter](http://www.metafilter.com/71261/And-I-Refuse-To-Forget)

Is there some sort of magic to get it to load? I’ve gone to the link in both IE 6 and FireFox 5, and all of the text loads around a nice blank space where I presume the film should be. Any tips?

Thanks, **Swallowed My Cellphone** , that worked.

Interesting concept, executed well. The only thing that lessened my enjoyment was that listening to people whisper annoys the shit out of me.
