Recently completed, this mini-epic of a short film is the culmination of drama development for the retro-juice collective. The company's long standing relationship with suppliers and the Film Council supported the production of Writer/Director Mark Davis' ambitious micro-movie. But it was the collective skill and resource of the company that truly enabled this declaration to the film industry that retro-juice were poised to produce their first feature film.
Currently the short film is entering the festival circuit which prohibits a full version of the short from being downloadable. However, a copy of the short can be sent out on DVD by enquiring at the Contact Us page, and details of all festival and private screenings will be posted here.
