Fresh Prints in Bel Air is a Craitish-produced war film directed by Rich Gaärsen and starring Zandt brothers Gus and Henry de Brandt.
The film follows a Hammish civilian and his family through the outbreak of the Hammish Civil War in 1644 AN, primarily focusing on his attempts to help his wife and children flee to safety. On their route to Bel Air, across the border into Passas, he deals with his brother's decision to take up arms and fight, and the dilemmas he faces in deciding the best thing to do for himself, his relatives and his country.
While a number of critics noted some slow pacing of the film and its simplistic script, the film's direction and cinematography received acclaim, especially its use of close-up to enhance high-pressure situations and long, continuous takes establishing events happening around the protagonist.
