The story tells the social, political and religious confusions that are experienced in each of the sides and how the protagonist is suddenly submerged in the field of battle. We can say that in this short film the fundamental idea that wants to express society is the ideals of an ideological and catastrophic war that was lived from 1936 to 1939. This war was called the Spanish civil war, a war whose opposing sides were the rightist (fascist) and leftist (republican) sides. Sendos sides with their corresponding ideals, ideals that we are showing this short film throughout its filming thanks to a character called ambidextrous. This character wakes up in the middle of a confrontation between the two sides, and has no idea of where this war proceeds, nor of the ideals that had any of their sides. But finally, thanks to his cunning and some luck, he manages to flee with impunity from every attacking bullet. The story is told with humor, despite the tragedy of the subject (the Spanish Civil War) and reflects the absurdity and futility of war, with those questions that do, both those of one side and the other, the character who is in the middle. The short film shows the unreason of a war in which the people always lose. War is a business that benefits a few and in which we lose all.1st Prize and best script International Colectivo Vagón Festival, Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. -Best Fiction, best script and best actor Monti Cruz Festival Viarte, Venezuela. -Public award at the "Gines en corto" festival. -Permio del Público International Festival Grenoble, France. -2nd CM Santa María de Europa Festival Prize, Madrid. -Diamond Prize Bangkok International Student Film Festival -Best Student Film Monaco Charity Film Festival. -Best Screenplay Short film festival of Huétor-Vega, Granada. -1st Festival "Tabernas de Cine" Prize.
