Movie Trailer: Ripple Effect
Written, directed by and starring Philippe Caland, this film tells the tale of a man who fears his life is condemned by bad karma for an awful act he committed in his past. He sets out to right that wrong to wipe the slate clean and then experiences a "spiritual awakening".

I wonder if his "spiritual awakening" is that karma is bunk. Or that even if karma exists it doesn't resolve itself and ends up being a never ending back and forth that can't logically be supported.

The trailer itself is disjointed. It most of it avoids mentioning the man's terrible deed, to the point of being distracting. Then they drop in what he's done and it spoils the mystery. The filmmakers have not been well served by this piece of marketing.
