Incoming Words of War
Incoming: Words of War and Incoming: The Wives is a two-season web series created by Kerry Drumm and produced by Kerry Drumm and Emma Hunt of Little Red Fox Productions.
Created during lockdown and filmed as restrictions eased in Melbourne, the series explores the lived experiences of soldiers and military wives through a character-driven “booth” format — intimate, funny, confronting and deeply human.
The series had its world premiere at SeriesFest and went on to receive over 40 award nominations and 13 wins across both seasons, with recognition for its writing, directing, ensemble performances, music and impact across international web series festivals.
About the Series
Built around a simple theatrical premise — people entering a booth to speak — Incoming uses direct address, humour and emotional honesty to explore war, service, memory, marriage and the lives lived around military experience.
Season One focuses on soldiers sharing memories of conflict, service and return. Season Two shifts the lens to military wives, giving space to the unseen emotional labour, fear, loyalty and resilience that sit beside military life.
Soldiers enter the booth to speak about war, service, memory and the human cost of deployment.
Military wives take the focus, sharing the private emotional reality of life beside service.
