SPECS

Title: Star Wars : In the Shadows

Number of episode: Six (+/- 25min/each)

Chronology: in Continuity, one year before the Battle of Yavin (1BBY)

Original story written by : Dany Pépin

Produced & Directed by : Dany Pépin


SYSNOPSIS

Born and raised in a military family, Emma Wermis will slowly discover that the Empire is not what she always been taught it was. Her allegiance to the Empire will be tested and she will, during her adventures, uncover something about her family and a secret weapon kept hidden even within the Empire.


DESCRIPTION

SWITS is a classic Star Wars space opera not unlike “A New Hope”. It could be describe as a light fugitive/adventure story with some mature theme inserted within. SWITS has been inspired by the Star Wars movies but also its Expanded Universe (EU) like the media giant Shadows of the Empire and The Force Unleashed. There are small EU references that will appeal to the fans of the genre, but most importantly the participation of Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine, Xizor, Guri and Mon Mothma in the story plot.
