Foxhole
Three wars. Three locations. One fight.
Directed by Jack Fessenden
Produced by FessyPix, Glass Eye Pix
A conceptually ambitious, morally probing war drama that uses temporal and casting repetition to interrogate how race, gender, and power persist across centuries of human conflict.
Unfolding over the span of 36 hours in three separate wars – The American Civil War, World War I, and Iraq – FOXHOLE follows five soldiers confined in a foxhole as they grapple with morality, futility, and an increasingly volatile combat situation. Casting the same five actors in each episode, the film depicts the shifting roles of race and gender over time against the backdrop of the seemingly endless human struggle for power and domination.
