The most interesting piece I have saw from the Future Film Festival called Rule 2. An short film tells a story about war impact on a family.
A different angle
I have saw plenty of war films, and always think that to set a story background as war is so much easier to dramatise the story.
Love, death, life these magic words with profound meaning, which are more difficult to explain in a normal background, but always performed brilliantly and compellingly in the war period.
However, Rule 2, describes the story in such a simple way, a screen monitor connecting two computer used by the British soldier and his family, one scene he's talking with his mother, the other his grilfriend.
Though there's only few sentences with very common content, but the pressure from war, seperation of the family all fanscinatingly displayed (through their face expression) in these short minutes, and incredibly emotional.
I have never experienced war, but when watching the story, I just feel it's so sad and touching.
