Sci-fi short film The Long Dig is based on the role-playing game (RPG) Aeronauts and is set in a distant future in which most of the world is covered in a mysterious, purple mist.

Prolonged exposure to the mist causes hallucinations, illness, and eventual death. So, the remnants of humanity now reside either in mist-absent clearings in emerging city-states high above ground, or sequestered in tunnels beneath the earth.

The short film chronicles the adventures of the exiled Eve and her companions Laren and Shaemus as they attempt to locate pre-catalcysmic technology in order to return to their home above ground. But danger awaits them within the mist.
