Synopsis/Details
'A visceral war short...There was a lot packed into these 14 pages, and I felt the story was successful in its pacing and its action. I felt this script took its time, and yet moved very quickly. That’s a very difficult balance to strike, and you managed to do it with ease.’
Evaluation from BlueCat
***
Some production notes:
- Four male actors
- Two locations: a shell hole and an empty, muddy field
- None of the things that make war movies expensive (like gunshots, explosions or tanks)
