Battaglia
A film by Owen Smith
Inspired by True Events
A tribute to a special group of soldiers who fought bravely to protect America in WWII, Battaglia was created for the 2005 Amazon.com Tribeca Short Film Competition sponsored by American Express.
Battaglia was selected as on of the five finalists of the second Amazon Theater/Tribeca Film Festival Short-Film Competition. The finalists were determined by Amazon.com customers, who submitted thousands of ratings and viewed hundreds of hours of film footage.
As a result of its Top Five placement, Battaglia premiered on the big screen at the MGM Screening Room in Manhattan for an audience of industry professionals and members of the press.
