A Film By Michael Heck
Nathan DuPree: The Preginning
Herbert H Woolworth, great-grandson of the great
FW Woolworth, spends his last few days on earth
much as he has spent his entire life, obsessed with
New York's Woolworth Building. His obsession
leads him into contact with agents from another
dimension who transport Herbert to that other world.
Ninety-six years later, Nathan DuPree arrives in
this other world, where Herbert has been trapped
for almost a century. Herbert has been plotting
his escape, and Nathan DuPree's arrival may be
the moment he's been waiting for. Finally, the
Narrator, who has led us through this tale, explains
everything before receiving a strange visitor.
