    A nightmare becoming true. Or, in some measure, more than true.

    A young traveller, walking on field, gets his foot stuck in a hole. The reaction of people ( cold realistic , precise defined ) and the end so often present in the most terrible nightmares , symbolic for the other foot in air and the pragmaticism of homeless.

    In short, a real gem, as a verdict about humanity , selfishness and the perspective about the other as simple object.

    Maybe, an useful example of honesty , demonstrating nothing- only reminding -, offering to young David morrisey the privilege of great acting .

    A very short, so powerful film . Or maybe, a warning.
