Directed by Dustin Apodaca, from a script by Apodaca & Edson Choi, ‘Necessary Evil’ is an animated music video from the band Talk Time. The adventure short takes viewers on a journey through mankind’s technological evolution with a comical undertone. Set predominately in the future, with pre-historic elements, the film delves into the theme of human fallibility. The science fiction narrative and the melodic rhythms of the music will certainly captivate and entertain the audience.

The 6-minute video opens at the dawn of mankind, where the brutality of human survival is rife. Advancements in weaponry act as a transition through the ages and into the future. We are introduced to two space travelers, whose mission is at a perilous risk. An alien creature offers a hand at help, but their primitive instinct is to attack – subsequently sabotaging their space quest. The film explores both the evolving and unaltered human personality.
