Featured review
A young girl lies on the living room floor . Feeling completely bored she leaves he house and goes in to the fields near by where she sees a man
And that is more or less the entire hub of the story . You do worry that this young child might be bumping in to a jogger with golden tracksuit white hair smoking a cigar and making yodelling sounds saying " Now then now then lucky lady , how's about that then ? " but it's not that type of short . There's no real ambiguity featuring any sort of danger . I notice the synopsis that comes with the short draws attention to the poetic nature of it and it's very fair to say Alicia Duffy has obviously been influenced by the Terence Malik school of film making featuring the beauty of nature . It contains a very beautiful scene here the camera is underwater but for those of us who enjoy narrative in film it is slightly disappointing and a bit empty as a story
