Primer is the kind of sci-fi movie that all the naysayers of big-budget Hollywood genre pictures claim to crave… subtle, smart and utterly without explosions, it's the thinking man's science-fiction film. And now writer-director Shane Carruth appears to finally be moving on his long-awaited follow-up project.

io9 has stumbled upon a website for the film, which is to be called A Topiary and will surely be as perplexing as the time-travel tale Primer. The site can be found here, though all it seems to feature at the moment is the following text:

Don't ask us what it means. But there's been a veritable tsunami of Carruth info leaking this week, because The Playlist also is on the trail of A Topiary -- and they actually got a hold of the script for the film. Like Primer, it sounds like pretty funky stuff. Read on for some plot details, but beware of mild spoilers…

"The script begins with a head-scratching 30-minute prologue involving Acre Stowe, a municipal worker of an undisclosed city in the 1980s. Carruth notes that scenes change at a pace of 30 to 40 seconds each and that this part of the film is paced somewhat like a combination of a conventional film and a 'previously on' segment of a TV show. … Acre begins his journey investigating strange starbursts he sees in the sky and eventually meets up with a group of people who are also researching this phenomenon and its consequences, amongst other scientific projects ranging in subject from thermochemistry to archaeology."

Still with us? Good, because it gets freakier…

"The main story, at first ambiguous in its relation to the prologue, revolves around 10 boys aged seven to 11 living in a small rural town (Carruth is ambiguous in both location and time here) and takes up the remaining two hours of the film. The boys are in possession of a mysterious black box called a 'Maker,' which in turn creates mysterious white discs called 'funnels.' The group of kids are at once puzzled and fascinated by the nature of the box, and eventually manipulate the discs into other peculiarly named artifacts (petals, arcs, fronds, etc.). Their creations and constructions lead up to their manufacturing of seemingly sentient quasi-mechanical beings dubbed 'Choruses.' Almost as if Topiary were an abstract arthouse take on Pokemon, you can imagine the competition and troubles the beings create amongst the children."

Right, so not exactly the project for Megan Fox to revive her career with. How close Carruth is to actually shooting the film is anyone's guess, but we here at IGN are hoping for sooner rather than later.
