12-Year-Olds Go to War in Must Watch I DECLARE WAR Trailer
You've got to watch this fantastic trailer for an upcoming movie called I Declare War, which centers on very intense game of capture the flag between two teams of 12-year-olds. The story is a mix of reality and fantasy, and the line between the two becomes blurred as the game goes on. Here's the synopsis,
Armed with nothing more than twigs, their imaginations and a simple set of rules, a group of 12-year-olds engaged in a lively game of Capture the Flag in the neighborhood woods start dangerously blurring the lines between make-believe and reality. Rocks = Grenades. Trees = Control towers. Sticks = Submachine guns. The youthful innocence of the game gradually takes on a different tone as the quest for victory pushes the boundaries of friendship. The would-be warriors get a searing glimpse of humanity's dark side as their combat scenario takes them beyond the rules of the game and into an adventure where fantasy combat clashes with the real world.
The film was directed by Jason Lapeyre and Robert Wilson, and it's being distributed by Drafthouse Films. It will be available on VOD, iTunes, and for digital download on July 26th and in select theaters on August 30th. Watch the trailer, and let us know if this is a movie you're looking forward to watching.
