In the comedic sci-fi romance Future '38, directed by Jamie Greenberg, a man is dispatched from the year 1938 on a critical mission to travel 80 years into the future. He arrives in what is to him the distant world of 2018, a time filled with bewildering technology and social customs that challenge his every notion of reality. The film explores his attempts to navigate this strange new era while connecting with the people he encounters, including those portrayed by Betty Gilpin, Nick Westrate, and Sophie von Haselberg. His journey is further complicated by interactions with characters played by Robert John Burke, Ethan Phillips, Ilana Becker, and the unexpected appearance of famed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson as himself. With a runtime of 75 minutes, this genre-blending adventure from writer-director Jamie Greenberg combines elements of comedy, romance, and science fiction, following its protagonist's quest to complete his assignment and perhaps find something more in a future he never imagined.
