What happens

Entity is a 2014 English-language French short science-fiction horror film directed by Andrew Desmond and co-written by Jean-Phillipe Ferré about an astronaut (Alias Hilsum, in a solo performance) who is stranded in deep space and has a close encounter with a sentient entity in the form of a nebula. Entity is Desmond's third film, the previous two also being shorts, Doppelganger and Epilogue. The first French short film to have its sound mixed in Dolby Atmos, Entity has been selected for over eighty film festivals and received, among other honours, a Best Visual Effects Award from both the Hollywood Horror Fest and the FilmQuest Film Festival (in Provo, Utah, near Salt Lake City). Reviews have been favourable, particularly for the short's visual effects. In 2017, Entity received a general theatrical release through its inclusion in the Canadian science-fiction horror anthology film, Galaxy of Horrors. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
