Jonty Velcro
Second World War dark comedy short about a team of elite special forces operating behind enemy lines. 30 years after their last mission in Northern France in 1944, the two surviving members meet by chance. They reminisce about the war, but their recollections of what happened seem to differ, and the mission may not have been quite as it seemed...
