The Hill
“They went up like men! They came down like animals!”
DramaWar
North Africa, World War II. British soldiers on the brink of collapse push beyond endurance to struggle up a brutal incline. It's not a military objective. It's The Hill, a manmade instrument of torture, a tower of sand seared by a white-hot sun. And the troops' tormentors are not the enemy, but their own comrades-at-arms.
VIBE
A suffocating, sun-baked descent into the worst of human nature. The heat is palpable, the despair suffocating, as men are pushed to their absolute limits by their own kind. It's a raw, unflinching look at power and punishment.
