The first feature-length documentary that fully explores how the toxic social and political Canadian context after 1968 created some of the most nihilistic and imaginative Canadian cult films of the 1970s and 80s and beyond.
After 20 years of intergalactic war, humanity must make a final stand against the Ma'har invaders. Dispatched to the treacherous deserts of Gauda Prime, Lieutenant Sharp (Anderson Bradshaw) and his unit must find and destroy the enemy's central weapon, the dreaded Ma'har dream machine. The obstacles are daunting- giant mutated creatures and an army of zombified sand troopers stand between the unit and their objective. They must thwart a devious politician (UFC Octagon Girl Edith Labelle in her screen debut) and her hideously disfigured mercenary, The Face (Lael Stellick.) Political intrigue will prove as challenging as the monstrous faun of Gauda Prime but Sharp's team are humanity's only fighting chance against the deadly Ma'har armada.
Based on Frank Miller's graphic novel, "300" is very loosely based the 480 B.C. Battle of Thermopylae, where the King of Sparta led his army against the advancing Persians; the battle is said to have inspired all of Greece to band together against the Persians, and helped usher in the world's first democracy.
After the gruesome events on Caprini, Sharp and his elite team of tough, witty and trigger happy space Marines must now head out to the icy planet Mezzo to investigate further Ma'har activities. What they will encounter will defy their imaginations as they tackle giant man eating snow worms, an underground city of Cyborgs, a slew of murderous alien entities and maybe, finally, the ever elusive Ma'hars.
