Description

Henry Long was born with a rare condition that leaves him unable to feel physical pain. Life for him is a daily struggle, never knowing when he might become seriously injured without realizing it, or worse, die from an internal injury he never knew existed. Barricading himself in a world of science, Henry has dedicated his life to finding a cure so that he can one day know what it’s like to feel ‘normal.’ When he discovers a promising drug that he is unable to obtain on his own, he gets involved with a dangerous scientist with a dark past and his own secret agenda. Henry must decide if his need for normalcy is worth paying the ultimate price before it’s too late.

  • SMART MOVIE - for thinkers!

    Personally, I am a huge fan of a (good) indie film. They aren't formulated like big budget, big studio productions and they can experiment more. This film has a plot like I've never seen before - but I don't want to spoil anything. The synopsis sums it up nicely, and the main guys journey is the most interesting part. Painless had all the elements I need to enjoy a movie - smart writing, solid acting, pacing and *quality. Excellent camera work too! Definitely worth a watch for an intellectual crowd! Kudos to the team!

    Too bad this film has no big names in it... otherwise it would be getting a lot more recognition. The story is really interesting and so well written. It's also really well executed, you would be surprised that the film was made for next to nothing. Also, I think they are misrepresenting this film, it is not a sci-fi... all of the science in the film is REAL! If you miss the cool character driven films of the 90's like the Darren Aronofsky film Pi, check this film out.

    I absolutely loved this movie! The story was very heartfelt, and the actors were really great. I especially loved the actress who played Shani and the actor who played Henry. This movie really stuck with me and gave me a lot to think about.
