This was posted today on The Old-Time Radio Digest! (Thanks Henry)

I ran across this short film on Vimeo. It has used WOTW as the radio show in
the background. Here is the description:

On the evening of October 30th, 1938 Orson Welles' voice travelled far across
the radio waves, bringing word of an invading alien army from Mars. The
theatricality and delivery of the performance, along with recent memories of
the Hindenburg disaster (one year prior), sent many listeners into a panic.

Unfortunate coincidence would fall upon the town of Concrete Washington where,at the height of the invading alien attack, a power transformer blew out
sending the entire town and surrounding areas into darkness.

These circumstances are the backdrop of Embers & Dust; a long-gestating
passion project written and directed by Patrick Biesemans.

Here is the link:

It's well done.
