Video Trailer: Loud Evolution

Thomas Loud is an everyday person – he thinks he knows what is wrong with the world and how to fix it, but never does anything. He thinks he knows what is wrong with society and has a vague idea of who to blame, but leaves it all for tomorrow. He thinks he knows about a lot of things, but the truth is, he doesn’t.

But one day, that all changes when a very, very stupid idea gets Thomas thrown amidst a shadowy organization that doesn’t want to rule the world. Quite opposite, the organization wants to save it. And they will soon teach Thomas that sometimes good genes aren’t in good people.

Loud Evolution, by Goran Racic is available from Amazon and Apple iTunes.
