Eternity (2013 film)

Eternity is a 2013 scifi murder mystery set in the near future. It was directed by Alex Galvin and filmed in Wellington, Hong Kong and Hawkes Bay. The film cost about NZ100,000 to make but has the production values of a largebudget feature.

The film is influenced by Galvins interest in classic murder mysteries and also many scifi film classics, such as Soylent Green and Omega Man to more modern interpretations such as The Matrix and Inception and explores perceptions of reality hence the idea of a distinct world within a computer game.In the film, the New Zealand scenes provide the empty, green, expansive, cleanaired world that by then no longer exists in reality, while the sensory explosion of the Hong Kong streetscape describes the polluted world of the future. The Wellington scenes utilize local buildings and interiors such as the Town Hall, Wellesley Hotels spiral staircase, Parliamentary Library and the art deco Dominion Museum now the Wellington campus of Massey University along with Napier and Hastings art deco buildings. ........
