An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge

Ambrose Bierce's

This highly acclaimed short film includes among its honors an Academy Award® and the Cannes Film Festival Grand Prix Award.

The Civil War. A nation torn apart. A war fought in great battles, and a war fought on a much smaller scale... within the minds and hearts of a nation's young men.

On a lonely bridge a group of soldiers prepare for the somber task of hanging on of their countrymen, now an enemy, for sabotage. Ambrose Bierce's heralded story from "tales of Soldiers and Civilians" begins on this isolated bridge and envelops a journey through the mind and dreams of a man facing death.
