A snapshot of an alternative teutonic reality where a man, armed with only an old weathered axe, stands alone in front of his homestead and defends a terrified woman and child from an army of knights on horseback - and a 100 foot tall giant - with about as much success as can be expected in the circumstances.
As with all of Oats Studios shorts, this is designed to be a fragment of a story, intended to inspire other filmmakers and creators to expand the vision into something more significant and compelling. So as a standalone it will never be more than just a curiosity. Though it is in and of itself a small expansion of an internet-famous image by Polish artist Jakub Rozalski (who does other cool drawings that you may want to check out if this captured your imagination).
Whilst this is very brief and hence not truly satisfying, a series or a film in this grim world would certainly be of interest for me. And who knows? Maybe one day someone will grab this concept and run with it. Until then, may your imagination sustain you.
