Suspension

Aroview: Independent sci-fi thriller in the TWILIGHT ZONE mold, concerning a man who loses his wife and son in a car accident, and subsequently discovers he has the ability to pause time with his son's video camera.

Gaining control over his life with his special power, he finds connection with the grieving fiance of the deceased driver of the other vehicle, but the relationship becomes fraught with obsession and paranoia. Though reasonably well explored by the script and a key performance by Annie Tedesco, the production values don't quite do the highly intriguing concept justice - it screams out for a bigger-budgeted remake. However, there are layers to be discovered here for patient viewers with an appreciation for low-key ingenuity.
