By DAVE MCNARY

Eric Stoltz, Brendan Fehr, Camryn Manheim, Lyndsy Fonseca, Seymour Cassel and Kate Connor are starring in indie wartime drama “Fort McCoy.”

Connor and Michael Worth are producing the $1 million-budget pic, currently shooting in Wisconsin. Worth is directing from Connor’s script, which is based on actual events.

Story centers on a barber who moves with his family during WWII to a POW camp in Wisconsin, where the children are the sole youngsters on the base -- save for a German teenager who forges an alliance that crosses language barriers with the barber’s little girl.
