I am far to be a fan of romantic fims. Except, ff course, the oldies - classics. But this film is...amazing. For simplicity, for cinematography, for humor, for great storytelling. And for something who can be defined as magic of love. Short, the admirable acting ofCorrey Potter and John Bubniak and the air of fairy tale , the great use of water as symbol and the fine end. The minimalism is the axis of this great short film about a match, technology and real meet as the prize after a terrible struggle for pure happiness.

I don't normally watch short movies, but here is one I liked enough that I watched it twice, and knew I was going to have to tell you about it.

Blake is a young man in a world where some revolutionary new technology has found a way to link us with our perfect partner. Blake's apparently had no luck with it anyway, sitting in his bathtub scrolling through his 17,000th mismatch, before finally he finds the one for him - but then he accidentally drops the tablet in the bathtub.

Submerging himself in the water, he finds that each time he gets newly soaked, he is teleported to water someplace else, such as the ocean, a swimming pool, a restaurant, a backyard party, a shower room. Eventually, he is teleported, naked, in front of Natalie, the girl for him... or has the tablet made a mistake?

I thought this was a pretty brilliant short movie. It's invigorating, captivating, touching. The performances of the man (Blake) and woman (Natalie) are both striking without any real dialogue. I felt something for both of them.

John Bubniak, who plays Blake, reminded me of Samuel Johnson, early 2000s It boy of Australian TV.

I'm surprised it has only one other review on IMDB, and so few ratings. Where's the audience it deserves? More people should see it.
