I am a walking contradiction. I am a “Weekend Warrior” – someone who takes half-measures to change themselves and the world. That’s why the term “Weekend Warrior” isn’t exclusive to the army reservists, and the film, in my opinion, is not a surface level parody of the military. It’s a critique of my comfortable, entitled and selfish life. And so ironically, if you are actually a “Weekend Warrior”, and a member of the Canadian Forces in any capacity, I don’t think you’re a “Weekend Warrior”. By enlisting, you’ve already taken a step that many of us in our comfort zones would never dare to take. If I was brave enough, maybe I would have joined the military and put myself through hell until I came out the other side a true fearless hero. Instead, I did what every white boy from the suburbs would do… made a short film.“ – Lyndon Casey
