    Kirpianuscus

    Ray

    A very simple story about hockey, fears, love of mother, bullying . Not the last, about love and certitude.

    But , first, about loneliness. And the need to integrate in a world of competition and apparences.

    Something like a delicate flavor defines this short film in which the roots are easy to be imaginated and the acting of the actors creating the portraits of mother and young Ray are just seductive for realistic clearity.

    A film about familiar moments, honest presented, wise explored and about the truth offering answer , the fair one, to tensions, fears and pressures.

    The unspoken things, delicate suggested, this is the great good point of this sensitive, touching and emotional short film.
