Synopsis by Bhob Stewart
This low-budget British drama follows two blokes through survival games in rural southern England. After John (Luke Shaw) and Ben (Simon Bateso) get in a dispute with the sergeant (David O'Kelly) in charge, they are kicked out of the games. Instead of heading back to London, they hang out and run into computer-nerd Jim (Matt Lane), whom they met at the games. In another encounter with the sergeant, he aggressively issues a drunken challenge for a rematch the next day. Unfortunately for the trio, the sergeant and his buddies turn up with real guns. Shown at the 1997 Cannes and Edinburgh film festivals.
