Director Deborah Correa & Writer Ron Yungul discuss their new feature film THE WAR BETWEEN

THE WAR BETWEEN  is set in the Arizona Territory during the early days of the Civil War, THE WAR BETWEEN is a survival Western, that follows a Union soldier with no memory, a paroled Confederate private, and an exiled Chiricahua Apache as they navigate the unforgiving desert and confront the beliefs that divide them.

Many of you know that I love period films and heavily character-driven films and with THE WAR BETWEEN, we get both. 

Watching two men with opposing views, backgrounds is a tug-o-war happening in real time on screen. As each scene moves by, there are little subtle secrets that you have to find or they will be revealed to you later. This is the beauty of Ron Yungul’s storytelling and Deborah Correa’s directing. 

You can’t beat the backdrop of the beauty of the desert, a wide open space that becomes very small when we are solely focused on two characters who don’t like each, but deep down they need each other. 

Add the Chiricahua Apache Indian and you see the element of wisdom show up in flesh and blood. Amazing what one can learn from a passing stranger. 

When THE WAR BETWEEN becomes available to the public, you need to see it. Again, you can’t beat great storytelling and as I always say, we need more character-driven films and THE WAR BETWEEN checks off all the boxes.
