Synopsis
After dedicating his entire life to service in the armed forces Andrew Coleman now struggles to slot back into a world he no longer recognizes. Forced to confront the death of his daughter following a fatal encounter with drugs, he becomes hell-bent on finding those responsible. With nothing to lose, a violent criminal underworld unravels in his wake. Two worlds collide as Andrew hunts his daughter’s boyfriend Cassius, we witness both sides of the story as he seeks answers and revenge. Set against a backdrop of realistic, fast-paced action, guided by high-qual-ity military drills; and created by former Royal Marines Commandos. Sunray: Fallen Soldier challenges the perceptions of mental health and the struggles that soldiers face when reintegrating back into civilian life.
“Sunray: Fallen Soldier has been an extraordinary and transformative endeavor. As our inaugural feature film, undertaken without the formal training of a film school, we plunged headfirst into uncharted wasters armed only with a concept and determination to craft something exceptional. The support for the project has been truly overwhelming, and we owe its realization to the unwavering belief of our supporters and the invaluable contributions of everyone involved,” says James Clarke in his director’s statement. “Within the Armed Forces lies a wealth of exceptional talent and creativity, fortified by the resilience and values instilled by military service. When this combination converges, it creates an unstoppable creative force. Sunray is ultimately about a veteran harnessing their experiences as a superpower, and the creative process of the film serves as a poignant extension of this, showcasing the therapeutic power of the arts. It has been both an honor and a humbling experience to shed light on mental health through the action-packed narrative of Sunray: Fallen Soldier”
