War is a simple film portrait of four characters surviving the end of America, looking for work on the abandoned lands and occasionally meeting each other. Set in a post-apocalyptic rural world, this quiet film follows the inner monologues of a farmer, a junkman, a preacher and a young boy as they live out their years on the fringe of civilization. Shooting alone for almost five years on a silent hand-cranked film camera, we assembled an unconventional narrative out of these character studies, attempting in limited means to reveal the drama of a disintegrating society. The four people who appear in the film were all residents of Warren, Pennsylvania where the film was shot. Many of the locations that appear in the film no longer exist.
