I remember seeing this film as a teenager at a film festival in Southern California (early '70s).  It's a sometimes surreal-like short action film centering around the old adage, "We need one another to survive."  In this instance, several stranded WWII American and German military personnel struggle to survive in the "Baroque A Nova" desert.  There's some good acting, especially from Eric Lehman and Scott Weintraub, and the Agatha Christie "And Then There Were None" approach is often amusing.  This one may be hard to find on video or television.  It might have played the short film festival circuit only.

The action genre features fast-paced, thrilling, and intense sequences of physical feats, combat, and excitement. The characters of these stories are involved in daring and often dangerous situations, requiring them to rely on their physical prowess, skills, and quick thinking to overcome challenges and adversaries.

The short form refers to creative works characterized by their brevity and concise storytelling. Unlike full-length feature films, short films have a running time of less than 45 minutes, while TV shorts have a running time of less than 22 minutes.
