"40-min euro-western explores character choices against the backdrop of striped mountains and six-shooters." From young experimental director Paul Blair comes a story about choice and consequence, fate and luck. Funded independently and researched for over a year, "Bandit" is a short with the scale as wide as the West itself. In the visual style of 60's Italian Westerns, this short intertwines two adjacent stories... one a tale of discovery, the other of betrayal. Surrounded by piles of bodies and a noose around his neck, Leonard wakes up with no memory of the events that led up to the massacre that surrounds him. Choosing to help rather than abandon the men around him, Leonard meets a mysterious cast of characters that have their own agendas: some dangerous, some friendly, and some both. A parallel tale reveals Leonard's past, and the two merge in the end to reveal just how The Mustachioed Bandit Meets His End. |

| Filmed on the rim of Zion National Park, Utah's breathtaking canyons serve as a backdrop to this tale. Filmed on-location at movie sets used by Clint Eastwood's The Outlaw Josey Wales and TV's Gunsmoke, "Bandit" is a refreshing alternative to the typical LA Apartment Drama. |
