Wanted and on the run, an infamous outlaw is pursued across the steam-powered dystopia of The State by a posse of relentless lawmen. In this desolate land of dust, rust and blood, there's not many problems that a fast horse and a gun can't solve, but things aren't always what they seem on the wild wasteland frontier.

🐎 The Ballad of Maddog Quinn
Dir. Matt Inns
[ Ссылка ]
"Heart is certainly the word that comes to mind when unravelling The Ballad of Maddog Quinn. However, that emotional core is delivered through some kinetic, old-school filmmaking, an approach that (personally) had me pining for ’80s action-movies. Shot on location in Tekapo, in the Canterbury region of New Zealand, Inns admits he “rooted a lot of the style in Sergio Leone’s old school westerns”, bringing as much of his short, as possible, to life through practical FX, the director employed “squibs, blood, practical sets, miniatures” and the incredible backdrops of the setting to paint a vivid and immersive world. - S/W Curator, Rob Munday
