For a young boy, a toy gun may be the most exciting thing in the world. But what if the gun was real? Would he really understand the difference? 'Pistol' is a dark humor shortfilm about children’s fantasies about weapons and violence that gets tangled up with real world violence.

Registreringen af festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film, der ikke er i festivaldistribution,
foretages kun for "launch"-festivaler ifølge Filminstituttets prioriterede festivalliste. Se listen over prioriterede festivaler.
