THE JOCKSTRAP RAIDERS is the 19 minute UCLA thesis animated film of Mark Nelson, the story – which took 5 years to complete (part time) – takes place during World War I in Leeds, England where a group of underdog misfits are excluded from the war due to various abnormalities. Threatened by the invading German Kaiser and his army, the must learn to become a team and overcome their deficiencies in order to save Britain and the world.

This was a pretty cool little short film that looked like it would have been right at home playing before a big screen Pixar or Dreamworks movie.
