PERVITIN
A Luftwaffe Field Division Gruppe is cut off from the rest of their division on the Eastern Front in 1943. After sustaining heavy casualties from artillery bombardments by the Red Army for numerous weeks, the men hope to survive in a hastily dug trench system. The under strength Gruppe is left with rations, ammunition and morale running at an all time low. Julian, the youngest in the Gruppe, in an attempt to cope with the atrocities of war, has been abusing his stash of Pervitin. Pervitin was a stimulant given to soldiers in the German Military during World War 2. The pill increased focus, energy and morale, while lowering fear and inhibitions. It also had severe side effects that included exhaustion, heart pain, vomiting, delirium, depression, hallucinations, suicidal thoughts, stroke and death. Julian and the other remaining members of the Gruppe must deal with not only the horrors of war, but manage the paranoia and infighting.

DESPAIR
World War 2 history short film shot over 2022/23. Spitfire Captain Roger Ellery of the RAF is shot down over occupied Belgium. He must try to navigate his way home and evade capture from the Waffen SS troop unit that are stalking him. Ellery’s journey takes him to dark places he never imagined he’d find himself in. But he must get home. He makes his way through the Ardennes forest, as the Nazis pursue him, using their mg42 machine gun and MP40 guns to try to take him down. This film is a historical piece of entertainment and is in no way political. It is our intention to make thought provoking content that reflects on the mistakes of the past.
