We are a production company called The Truck Productions, curerntly we are in pre-production of a super-short film about topic of how war imapcts civilians and their life ambitions.

Worth mentioning that the kid is not going to be involved in any of the cruel scenes, the film environment will be friendly and cozy.

SYNOPSIS:
A young boy is growing up in a comfortable and loving environment in the 2000s. He's a fan
of the sea, sailing and is eager to explore the world. One day, he watches the cartoonish TV program
for kids hosted by the “Captain Teddy Bear”. The “captain” teaches “young sailors” how to make a
nautical knot
After learning the key sailor's skill, the story moves in time to the future. The kid we saw
earlier has grown up. He has become a soldier. He is found by us standing on the military bag next
to the tree in the field. Soon it becomes clear that he is about to hang himself. The boy uses the skill
or knot tying he learned earlier, but for a different purpose. As the main character makes the final
decision, the “captain” makes the final remarks and farewells through voice-over. In the final shot,
the man is found to be hanging on the lonely tree in the middle of the empty field.
