Synopsis:

A Blue Soldier and a Yellow Soldier play a board game trying to outwit each other, struggling for control over a piece of land. The Farmer who belongs to the land is not allowed to play and must pick a side. As the fighting escalates, what side does she choose?

Screenings: Has been officially selected for festivals around the world

Director’s Comment: Watch as two imperialist clowns threaten to bring the world down with their shenanigans, as they see it as a mere game.  PAPER PLAYERS’ WAR is a simple story, one that I hope people all across the world can relate to right now. We’re like the Farmer, stuck between two enemies and being tricked into picking one.  When it all comes to a head, I hope more people can be more like the Farmer.

Hopefully, you have as much fun watching as we did making this film into a reality.
