post on short film on the video offside

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYIxBRA5qjA&feature=relmfu

start of film: commentary from a radio to 2 soldiers on a soccer match. This compliments the title of the film 'Offside'. But the quality is rather low.

1 min 30: 2 italian soldiers with guns appear opposite the brazilians. commentary continues but the 2 sets of men although facing off, are not willing to open fire on each other. they listen intently to the commentary as the match gets intensified.

2 min 46: both sets of men are sweating and they are so nervous about the match they could'nt hold their guns well. Commentary continues.

2 min 52: commentary suddenly stops. radio loses signal. silence takes over. the whole standoff escalates into unbearable tension

3 min 25: just when they were about to open fire, the commentary resumes. tensions immediately stop and both sides breathe a sigh of relief.

4 min: after news broke out that brazil scored, the brazillian soldier accidentally opens fire and hits an italian soldier. a deafening silence consumes the entire film to describe the 'uh-oh' feeling felt by all the men there.
4 min 15: As the radio continued the cheers for brazil's goal, both sets of men broke out into an epic gunfire and all die. When they die, news broke out that the goal was offside. Very funny end to the video.
