A dark, morally complex short film about a guilt-stricken assassin caught between his conscience and his wife's ruthless pragmatism, exploring the psychological cost of violence.

Whistle depicts the dreary off-hours of an ultra-technological hit-man who becomes 'involved' in the life of one of his victims. The hit-man's wife is not only fully cognizant of her husband's day job but she is also the cold-blooded contact with his bosses when the conscience crisis sets in!
