A Reckoning (formerly known as Straw Man) is a great little Indie movie directed by A D Barker with fantastic cinematography & editing by Adam Krajczynski. It stars Leslie Simpson and Axelle Carolyn.
The film tells the story of a lone man cast adrift in an empty, decaying world. To try and retain a grip on his splintering sanity, he creates a world of his own making; an almost mundane existence of rules and routine. He stitches a village full of straw people, and goes about his day to day business, recreating a life from a world long gone. But this pantomime soon starts to disintegrate as his fractured mind begins to bleed out into his world.
A D Barker has sent me the new trailer and it is well worth a watch. As there is still no distibution in place it may be the only chance you get to see some new footage from the film for a while.
It really does need to be seen so hopefully it will all be sorted soon. Check out my review and MondoGhosto’s review.
