Year: 2008

In a world of fear and greed, the Roundheads and the Squareheads live in tense proximity, divided by a painted line across the ground. Poverty, loneliness and malaise are rampant. An emergency summit is held to see what can be done. A heated debate results in a charged declaration: 'It’s On!' Orders are issued, civilians are conscripted and troops are mobilised. Both armies charge towards each other with rising urgency until, with arms outstretched, they collide in an epic, heartfelt hug. The military maneuver concludes successfully, spreading happiness and healing differences across the country.
