Hunters

How appropriate to find a discussion about World War II and America. This captivating takes on ideas that have been floating on the internet for years and turns them into a viable thoughts for exploration. Some of it though makes sense. If you bring in the scientists without trying to alter their belief system with the hope of harnessing their brilliant technical minds, how much damage have you really done by eliminating a few architects in a trial in Nuremberg. 

The story then is a look at this subject and the battle between a few older people who were on one side of history as they seek to find justice against those who were on another side of history. We are deliberate about not being to clear about history because we have learnt that the victor tends to skew history in favor of himself. 

The motion graphics utilized in the credits make reference to a sort of chess board…and this it is. Several characters are brought together to help deal with men and women who survived and thrive and would like to see the completion if a task they started in 1939 and possibly even earlier. 

From what we gather. The God the people worship seems to be at war with the world. To deal with this God, the world is at war with a people who call themselves by His name. And so the battle lines are drawn. It is this haunting destiny with eternity that many seek to depart from and have been known to cross over to the dark side just to avoid the curse of being called His people. 

Anyway, a rag tag force is formed consisting of a troubled Japanese Vietnam Veteran, an attractive African American single mother growing up during the great black awakening, a Jewish couple skilled with all things electronic (signal intelligence) but with trauma from the concentration camps, a not so successful actor, a German girl smuggled out of Germany and raised in a convent and a wealthy Jewish man with a controversial past. 

On the other side there are politicians, Federal Agents, Journalists and a group of young friends fresh from high school who somehow find themselves stuck in this story. With a mix of humor (so difficult to do when you are dealing with such a touchy subject) the writers and director manage to weave a compelling story interwoven with music, art, history and yes unbridled violence.
