We never made any posters, but here are some promotional images -
Logline - Three revolutionaries in a bleak future take the law into their own hands, and learn a hard lesson on the true nature of power.
Some back story - "Pacifica: The Biggest Stick" started a few years back after I watched a documentary about North Korea. It raised the question in my mind, "How far do people have to be pushed? How far, before they rise up in defiance?" I imagined people in my region, the Pacific Northwest, living under similar circumstances in a not too distant future. The nation of "Pacifica" was born, and I wrote the first Pacifica story. I was working with an indie film collective called Mutually Assured Productions at the time. The plan was that everyone would write a narrative short taking place within the boundaries of "Pacifica." We ended up with about 10 short scripts, and decided that we would shoot them all (LOL). First to shoot would be "The Biggest Stick." It wasn't the first Pacifica story, and it was a far cry from the best, but it was the easiest to shoot. So we shot it.
Here is what I think is a great write up about Pacifica:TBS in an entertainment paper/blog, The Weekly Volcano.
After shooting Pacifica: The Biggest Stick, we decided that the remainder of the Pacifica stories were too large an undertaking, and we shelved any further Pacifica shorts. Two short films later, Mutually Assured Productions disbanded.
