'Diminuendo' is the sci-fi film that will touch your soul when you least expect it

'Diminuendo' features Richard Hatch as Haskell Edwards, a has-been film director who is on the brink of rock bottom.

Adrian Stewart, Sarah Goldberger and Bryn Pryor's brainchild 'Diminuendo' is the sci-fi-movie that will ironically jerk you awake to a potential reality in the not-so-distant future. The film, which was screened at the prestigious Indy Film Fest at Newfields and the Dances With Film Fest this year, is set in 2025 and explores the evergreen topics of love, loss, addiction, obsession, and redemption. 

The film has 'Battlestar: Galactica' star Richard Hatch playing the leading man Haskell Edwards; his last film before succumbing to pancreatic cancer in February 2017. Haskell is a tarnished, has-been film director, whose spiral towards his rock bottom has been accelerated by drugs and alcohol, both of which he has been addicted to, since the suicide of his girlfriend, Cello Shea (Chloe Dykstra) nine years prior to us meeting him.
