Do you want to see the unseen? Dutch (Benedict Wall) may look like just another defeated and washed-up loser, but behind his pissed-off exterior lurks a hyperdimensional being of exceptional promise. His wife left him, his career as a tennis coach is floundering, and he would give anything to find the driver of the silver Toyota Corolla who hit him and drove off a year ago–the event that initiated Dutch’s downward spiral. Enter Lyra (Florence Noble), a witchy disciplinarian who offers to help Dutch unleash his latent psychic powers and break free from the illusion of linear time. After a crash course in telelocation and astral projection, the unlikely psionic prodigy is ready for his quest of cosmic revenge, but Lyra has other plans: she needs Dutch’s help to find a mysterious crystal known as the Paragon before it falls into the hands of her evil brother Haxan (Jonny Brugh) and his mind slaves.
Written and directed by Michael Duignan, the film stars Benedict Wall, Florence Noble, Jessica Grace Smith, Michelle Ang, Shadon Meredith, Jonny Brugh, Cameron Rhodes, Chloe White, and Lucky Lee Morton.
The Paragon is in US cinemas and On Digital from 6th September. Opening at select Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago (Music Box Theatre), Denver, Austin and more.

Short filmTranscript
00:00The time has come to attempt your first telelocation.
00:06Visualize the object and begin your breath work.
00:15You will come to the point of singularity.
00:19At that point, you will experience the object directly.
00:24Six minutes.
00:28That's how long they reckon my heart stopped for.
00:30The cops at the car that hit me, they just drove off.
00:34That's not my fault.
00:35I was just walking down the street.
00:36You got to think, what do I want?
00:38What do you want?
00:39Revenge.
00:40Revenge is cool.
00:41I know what you search for, Dutch.
00:42Why do you seek psionic power?
00:43I want to meet the prick that did this to me.
00:53Physical pain is nothing.
00:55How are you doing this?
00:56You know how I'm doing it.
00:59If you master even the basic precepts of psionic power without going insane...
01:02Robot, laser eyes.
01:03And then you will understand.
01:04Cosmic pain.
01:05I don't believe in that woo-woo bullshit.
01:16Okay?
01:17Come with me.
01:19I want my money back.
01:31You did not pay any money.
01:32Who are you?
01:33We are seekers from another plane of existence.
01:34The Paragon allows an adept to access anything, anywhere in space-time.
01:35You will find the Paragon for me.
01:37Uh, great.
02:02Do it then.
02:06What the hell is going on?
