Film Synopsis

A small village relies on a glass factory for it's employment and when the owner dies taking the formula for Ruby glass (given to him by a wandering apocalyptic visionary) to his grave, the factory falls into decline and bankruptcy.  The cast was put into a hypnotic trance each day to try and re-create a feeling of mass hysteria.
