The(ir) Blurb...

A boy sees a poster for his school's dance. A girl examines their face in front of a mirror. The boy uncomfortably examines his body. The boy and girl ask what they like about each other. The girl talks about emotions. The boy talks about physical traits. As they get closer and closer to being ready for the dance, their answers to each others' questions seem less certain. This short film follows the boy and the girl as they decide whether they should attend the dance as they appear to each other or in their own dreams.
