Variations on Violence

Zach Nichols (Dir), 71 minutes, USA, New York State Premiere.

Director/Writer Zach Nichols, Producer G. Anthony Svatek, and Director of Photography Sean Hanley in attendance.

Consumed by the distant violence he witnesses daily, a military drone pilot drifts toward self-destruction, leaving his sister to face the intimate cost of war fought far away.

Drawn from the experiences of real U.S. military drone pilots living with PTSD, Variations on Violence visualizes trauma’s inescapable spread.
