Tensions escalate between two opposing soldiers manning a remote desert outpost, in award-winning director Oscar Hudson’s blackly comic and surreal feature debut.

The paradoxical absurdity of warfare is manifest from the opening scene of this sharp, stylish allegory. Duelling military ceremonies on a featureless border inexorably descend into mounting hysteria and see psychological breakdowns of a pair of rival soldiers. Hudson’s formally inventive storytelling is a timely – and timeless – interrogation of why we fight.
