A PISTOL AGAINST MY HEAD // DOCUMENTARY SHORT FILM
An animated documentary film directed by Luca Schenato & Sinem Vardarli comissioned by Mosaic Films. We have created one of the three serial short animated documentaries from "Animated Minds" series, narrated by Veterans.
This film tells the real-life story of Hugh, an ex-army soldier, who is coping with the psychological fallout of war following tours in Northern Ireland and Bosnia. We tried to give a visually compelling and engaging way of understanding what it is to suffer from mental ill health - in this case, from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
