Wren (Jimmy Vollman) is the quintessential corporate drone. He wakes up in the morning, drives to work in his car, punches the clock, sits in a cubicle for hours and heads home to his television. Even though he has a stable job -- answering the phones for a box company -- and a good friend named Eden (Gretta Hill), Wren is disillusioned by his meaningless work and routine existence. But can he struggle to break free from the boxes -- cubicles, cars, televisions -- that define his life?

Audience Member As far as experiments in DV filmmaking go, there's no denying Boxes has ambition. A satire on the cubicle environment, there are moments of wit, but they feel few and far between. I also wondered if we're supposed to empathize with the main character: an insufferable jerk whose constant narration grated quickly. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member This plot was very interesting, but it was really hard for me to watch the film itself. I guess making it on a budget of $300 left a lot to be desired. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
