Short and (very) Sweet

This is a precisely executed allegory on coming out set against the backdrop of working class Dublin. Showing how, sometimes, the fantastical has to take over in order to allow us to deal with the harsh realities of our lives.

Comical and touching this is a great debut for all involved and will hopefully spread its culinary glow around the world.

8/10

Coming out fantasy with a classical bent...

A young Irish man contemplates coming out to his lower middle class family and considers what it it would be like. If only they were a bit more like those families he sees on the televised Shakespeare classics...

This is a well made short with a clever concept, well put together and perfectly paced. It's well worth the 8 minutes that it takes to watch it.

This film shows what can be done, even in a short time, by those that know their craft. Bravo!

almost...

...eccentric. To crazy. Because, for the use of a realistic coming out, a fairy tale- so pinky - pink- , frustrations and not the most happy atmosphere are mixed with a good result. Amusing and dramatic, in same measure, it is a lovely film who, after its end, you understand its deep bitterness.
