Emergency Musical Response Team 421 responds to distress calls using music as a healing therapy (EMR Part 1). What is initially perceived as a routine service call devolves into an existential challenge where the very fate of music hangs in the balance (EMR Part 2).

This is Part 1 of short film roughly 44 minutes. Part 2 will be another short film that will be another 40 minutes, but can be combined with part 1 making EMR into a feature film. Part 2 will take place in (the) Netherworld. In this film, Netherworld is a specific place, so that’s why I did not add “the” to netherworld. However, I am not sure which way to go with this? I like to think of Netherworld as a corporation and it’s clear in the film because I am using a car wash with a blinking Netherworld sign at the entrance.
