CGiii Comment

A film that reflects these [frustrating and overly sensitive] times...done with an authoritative and biting assurance.

Writing, direction and performances all gel perfectly...as they should in a [short] film.

Yes, it's savagely funny...because, it's savagely true. The 'youngsters' will probably find it offensive...whereas the 'elders' will reflect and nod knowingly.

The price of equality is mundane!
