What it is

Franz & Marie is a visceral journey into the heart of a good man broken by a bad world.

Set in the twisted world of late 19th Century European Folklore, after action on the front line a platoon of young oldiers has been stationed in an isolated outpost for months awaiting further orders. Among them is Franz Woyzeck, a man haunted by nightmares since his return. He sees fire in the sky - hallucinations that blur the line between reality and trauma.

Franz lives for two people: his girlfriend Marie, and their baby, Georgie. Forbidden from taking leave during the war, they haven’t been able to marry, but his devotion is absolute- he goes above and beyond to provide for Marie and his child.
