Dear Wendy
One shot is all it takes
Directed by Thomas Vinterberg
Produced by Lucky Punch, Nimbus Film
A darkly comedic underdog story about a pacifist gun club navigating friendship, codes, and the collision between idealism and harsh reality in a struggling American town.
In a blue-collar American town, a group of teens bands together to form the Dandies, a gang of gunslingers led by Dick Dandelion. Following a code of strict pacifism at odds with the fact that they all carry guns, the group eventually lets in Sebastian, the grandson of Dick's childhood nanny, Clarabelle, who fears the other gangs in the area. Dick and company try to protect Clarabelle, but events transpire that push the gang past posturing.
