I Declare War

Summer war games played by a group of 12-year-olds turn their local forest into a battlefield in this 2012 Fantastic Fest Audience Award winner. Rocks become grenades, sticks become submachine guns, and trees become control towers as the make-believe turns deadly serious...

Armed with nothing more than twigs, their imaginations and a simple set of rules, the boys engage in a game of Capture the Flag. The innocence of the game gradually takes on a different tone as the quest for victory pushes the boundaries of friendship and the would-be warriors get a searing glimpse of their own dark side.
