A Child Outside Time

Aleda, age 4 (name means: little wings) is the symbol of innocence and the main protagonist in this film. She will take the audience to the height of elation and also to the depth of despair. The story starts off small and cascades into an all consuming adventure; exposing a vista only recently glimpsed; that of the quantum world. Everything we know we experience as being within time; what if we where contacted by an intelligence that didn't understand time? Only a child's mind would have a chance of developing cognition of such a creature: any chance of breaking the conditioning we are all born with.
Early on in the film a seemingly typical family collides with the raw imagination of the youngest child Aleda leaving a trail of questions and paranoia that result in a series of unfortunate events. The story unfolds revelation by revelation as Aleda is incorrectly diagnosed time again: as probable causes for her odd behaviour are dismissed we are left with the improbable, seemingly impossible and finally an unimaginable solution. The second part of the story then defined where 'the revelation' is going. Aleda's task is to implement her new knowledge to link with the invisible being Yinkal and help control the deadly rays from a super-nova. She is ultimately let down by the short sightedness of humanity (as ecologically we are letting are kids down) but we get another chance. Like the physics describer within the story the point of the film is to challenge our arcane concept of good and bad and bring to the for front models of the world that might serve us better. It is also a celebration of the profound love we almost universally have for our children.
