"The kind of short film that, within its very limited time frame, can make you laugh out loud, have an existential crisis, and empathize heavily with the main character - especially if you’re in your 20s, though his struggles could be relatable to a person of any age. It’s hard enough to create a good balance of these 3 elements in a full-length film, yet they managed to do so in 15 minutes. They did a great job of taking quite a depressing topic and twisting it in a relatable and approachable way. It tricks you into reflecting on your own life while you’re laughing your head off over it’s absurdly comedic elements and dumb, approachable jokes. Lovely cinematography and music, the colouring especially near the end is captivating. The character itself is just unique enough to be entertaining without making him feel any less like an actual person that exists, not an uncommon one either. I’m sure a lot of people, especially those who come from immigrant families or struggling families, could relate to him in some sense. (I would also like to point out that this is the wrong trailer :()"
