I made this film as a testament to how difficult love can be. Life as we know it changes drastically when we lose touch with someone or something that we love. It can never be the same.
The concept of this film started out as a comedy but stretched and ultimately compressed itself into issues I faced during the development of this story. I am proud to see where the film has come, from the first words on the script to the last seconds on the screen. I wouldn't have it any other way.

A father must confront an eternal storm to reunite with his daughter and learn that man must tame his past before he tames his future.

The eternal storm in Atheum's Way is representative of the hardest challenges we face in life. One can not wait for the storm to pass, because there will always be another brewing. Facing those challenges teaches us the most about ourselves, and in the last leg of our journey we will face our greatest obstacles. The machine serpent is a reflection of this ultimate challenge. 
Generations ago, these man made monsters were created as tools of war; after we lost control of them they became their own masters. Now after years of battles and navigating the oceans, this one has lost its eyes and attacks anything that crosses its path. 
If our most advanced machines are guided to war, would it be no surprise that once they are intelligent, war is all they will know? Humans have trouble showing empathy for their own kind let alone other thinking creatures, and machines are a reflection of us. If we create them in the name of war, war is what we will receive. The father must confront this challenge, and tame the blind beast.
