Synopsis

Verdun, 1916. At the dawn of a battle, a telephonist soldier is called into a trench to repair the line of a command post. He’s just twenty years old, he lost his right ear in an explosion, and the left may not be better. He doesn’t even have a gun, his name is Julien, and he’s going to be dragged into the violence and absurdity of war. We wanted to embody this absurdity by a fragile hero, a deaf boy, a stranger facing a world whose meaning he no longer understands. Shot in 360° stereoscopic (3DOF), lasting approximately 15 minutes, Battlefield offers an immersive experience in the heart of the trenches, in the heart of the madness.
