It’s been made by the Across the Channel Production team who released Marooned Awakening last year to great acclaim.
Their latest big screen production is set in the late 19th century, with the filmmakers taking inspiration from the ideological close of the American frontier.
Decades since the mass genocide of a local tribe, in a small American community, one final indigenous man remains.
Above: The trailer for ‘Last Flamingo of the Red Summer Sunset’ was released this week, with the feature due to be released this summer.
As well as Cameron Ashplant, the film stars fellow local actors Brandon Ashplant and Andrew T Hislop.
The film’s off-island talent is led by narrator Billy Slaughter who is best known for westerns such as The Magnificent Seven.
Dane Rhodes, star of True Detective and Free State of Jones, and Dean Hollingsworth of Doctor Who and Casualty fame are also in the cast.
Cameron Ashplant portrays a ‘psychotic antagonist fueled by ethnic nationalism and the mysticism of American Expansion’. The film follows his desire to exterminate this so-called ‘Wild-Man’. He tasks the experienced Corporal Henry with this mission of eradication.
