Straight Circle 1

Two soldiers from opposing fictional nations are stationed at a remote desert border post. The war is officially over and a fragile peace has been declared, but tensions remain high. Each day, the soldiers perform patriotic rituals while growing increasingly suspicious of one another. Minor misunderstandings slowly escalate into an absurd power struggle that threatens both peace and sanity.

The film blends political satire with surreal duality, using split-screen imagery as a natural extension of its mirrored visual play. Luke and Elliott Tittensor deliver compelling performances as the two soldiers, reflecting the film’s exploration of identity and enemy imagery.

Minimalist landscapes, repetition, and stylized rituals create an atmosphere that is both humorous and deeply unsettling. The result is a highly original cinematic experience that becomes increasingly incomprehensible the more you think you understand it.
