Yarran, a World War II veteran of colour, is struck by a bullet during a battle against the Germans, leaving him fatally wounded. As he lays on the rough terrain, taking his last breaths, he reflects on his most treasured memory; saving his beloved wife Nancy from her abusive father when they were only young. This tragic romance unfolds through a series of flashbacks as Yarran imagines himself writing a final goodbye letter to his one true love, back home in his study on his old ivory typewriter.
Dear Nancy is heavily inspired by the work of Directors, Robert Mulligan, Roman Polanski, Billy Wilder, and Howard Hawks. Using inspiration from such films, including To Kill a Mockingbird (1962), Chinatown (1975) and The Big Sleep (1946), we aim to produce a beautiful film.
