When she is kidnapped and he is drawn into a violent encounter with an underground Argentinian drug smuggling operation. This short was shot and produced entirely in Perth, Western Australia and continues in the low-buget high action vein of Bender’s other films. He and his small team have become expert in creating maximum screen mayhem using stunts and post-production effects
