A Relative Stranger (2011)
West Texas, 1862. The Civil War rages. Meanwhile, young farmhand Sam awaits the return of his beloved Uncle Wade from the Front. However, after Wade arrives home unexpectedly one night, Sam realizes that his uncle is harboring a dangerous secret. Now, torn between the love for his uncle and a desire to do what's right, the boy must decide where he stands amongst men. 

The multi-award-winning short film from director Kane Senes and producer John Chriss, "A Relative Stranger" is an ambitious and confronting take on the fragility of family, on the pressures to grow up and the danger of hero-worship in a time of war.
