This one of the best short films I've seen at festivals this year. I didn't say anything at the Q&A at the Woods Hole Film Fedtivsl because it was so much classier than the others that I didn't want director Oxborough feel self-conscience.

The shooting style, the rhythm of the shots, the underplaying of the actors, the dance of eyes and glances, smart editing, great score all were classy and just right for the story.

It is also a very funny commentary on artist gig work and the absurdity of what young actors must contend with from goofy ad jobs to greedy employers, over weaning mothers. Ultimately it was about resilience and friendship which subtly extended through the stills with credits All this in like 15 minutes or so.

Love the acting of cameraman who shoots the ad and the lead actress is a stunner.

French-language cinema, whether in France, Québec, or other Francophone regions, explores cultural identity, social change, and the tension between the individual and society. French cinema is not only celebrated for its intellectual experimentation and auteur traditions, but also its success in mainstream comedy, romance, and commercial entertainment. In Québec, films often focus on questions of language, belonging, and community within a distinct cultural landscape.
