Based on “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge”, our 30 minutes short film puts this Ambrose Bierce story into the war-torn Budapest in 1944, in black and white, Film Noir style.
This adaptation gives new context to the original story. While in the original novel there is no emotional connection between the lead character and the reader, this movie has a captivating and charismatic female lead, who is trying to repair the sins of her father, a war criminal, by saving Jewish children from certain death.
