For some, the path to adulthood is gradual and fluid, as if maturity could somehow seep into one’s pores like steam from a warm bath. For others, the yoke of real responsibility is thrust suddenly and heavily upon their shoulders, though neither have a say in which path to maturity they will take.
Prospect, a powerful short story directed by Zeek Earl & Chris Caldwell follows one teenage heroine, an interplanetary prospector on a hostile and alien world, who must find the courage to save both her life and that of her critically wounded father.
