I can imagine the joy I would feel if I read this story. I know the ideas are pure and perfect in our minds. They don't have to be embodied in strict forms with a lot of compromises - which is what actually happened with this story: it happened and it flattened out. The interesting ideas evoked were trivialised. Perhaps the problem was the missing director. I mean a trükk and experienced one. Who would not have been satisfied with the perfect performances of the actors. I don't know what exactly should have been done differently. I am not a director myself. Or it's possible that the restraint and puritanism was due to the will of the director? I might have shown such a suddenly rich con man to have some sort of bad taste. At least symbolically - and not just with the turban, which is a calculatedly applied advertising tool for their own followers. In this form, the scenes retain the character of a TV movie. The end result, while interesting, is not surprising, not disturbing, not even refreshing.

Gleeson and sons. This is the proper way to define this short film. A nice story,fair performances. And the expectations about a memorable short film, not ignoring the generous theme.

And , indeed, the film is decent, correct crafted , using in fair way the story. But the impulse is to expect little more.

A man who seems have not ambition to be more than one of guys offering some answers is invited to a TV interview. The hostess is not real convincing about his powers and for defense , he reveals a sensitive subject from lady s past.

Home, the two sons explore the posibility of business , their father being near the final of career. And, helping one other , it seems than the things are not so difficult. A new TV interview, the guest is one of young men, the atmosphere seems the right one. But , without can speak about desillusion, the things seem at half way.

Sure, good acting but, in this case, this can be a real problem when the story seems...modest.
