The Kickstarter page for the feature film, Lucid, is one of those perfect examples.

It tells the story of Seth, a storybook artist, who has fled to a remote cabin after a deadly virus has wiped out humanity. He lives in isolation, injecting himself with a daily Antidote until one day, Seth’s only syringe is compromised and he is forced to alter the state of the Antidote. This has an unexpected side effect: Seth can now travel back in time to when he first met Ari, the love of his life.Their goal is to raise $70,000 to help make Lucid and as of writing this article, the campaign is already about a fourth of the way there.
