    Face March

    • 1984
    • Vern Hume, Alex Poruchnyk

    A grandmother spends one year gathering news coverage of war, thinking about a silent army. The results strip away all of broadcast television’s trappings. All we are left with are people in conflict, people in pain, people afraid for the future, leaders coming and going, and new leaders coming and going. Original soundtrack by Hume and Poruchnyk.
