Bring Us The Key

Synopsis

A boy rushes through wrecked streets and the devastated countryside, bullets still flying. He is bringing the key that will unlock the box containing the pen that will be used to sign a peace treaty. But the waiting leaders are on a short fuse and may not be able to wait. An animated collage, mainly in black and white, combining photographic and drawn elements.
