STRAIGHT CIRCLE

​FEATURE FILM
(COMING LATE 2026)

​TWO ENEMY SOLDIERS STATIONED ON A REMOTE BORDER IN A VAST FEATURELESS DESERT DESCEND INTO A STATE OF PROFOUND DISORIENTATION AFTER THEY FORGET WHICH SIDE OF THE THE BORDER IS WHICH. AS THEY GRAPPLE WITH THEIR IDENTITIES, LOYALTIES AND THE ABSURDITY OF THEIR SITUATION, THEIR ISOLATION SLOWLY GIVES WAY TO UNFATHOMABLE NIGHTMARE THAT WILL BLUR THE LINE BETWEEN FRIEND AND FOE.
