A feted film director’s obsession with a blood sucking parasite leads to her demise (Mockumentary)

When the celebrated film director-known as “M”- began her groundbreaking production, she did not foresee the unintended consequences of her project. M’s action packed film chronicled two women trailblazers in the detection and extermination business on their mission to eradicate a global pest from the face of the earth.

But, nature can be cruel. M’s film never saw the light of day. A tiny bloodsucking parasite led to the demise of the feted director. What it triggered in the mind of her nosey “Citizen Kane” neighbor, and by extension in our lives, is epic.

The cheap, superficial attractiveness of ostentatious luxury and glamour.            
This story is a call-to-action for people to recognize and deliberate 
what it means to be a consumer. To be a conscious consumer. 
The song is asking people to think about what effect their purchase of a car, 
jacket, or food has on the rest of the world, and not only, 
but what effect their choice has on the future of humanity, our children and posterity. 
Directed by Haiyang Yu (USA)
