In only a minute, we see that the main character struggles with his speech impediment, but aside from that we also see that this is a very lonely, talented person, who just wants to get out in the world and form relationships. We here his inner thoughts and they sound normal, but we see his lips moving in a phone conversation and it is clear that he is going through an internal struggle between what he hears his head, and what comes out. We also see him watching other people, a girl on a train, a couple fighting, and as he is watching these people in his everyday life, it is clear that he yearns for the type of normalcy that those people take for granted.
Maybe this short film was not solely a success because of the good writing, the intriguing plot, and talented actors, (although that is definitely part of it,) but maybe it owes it success to the word it spreads about those struggling with something that is their own personal issue. It sheds light on someones insecurity, and something that this man so wishes he could change.
This short film is raw, captivating, and it brings awareness to those that are struggling with something they cannot necessarily fix on their own, and it is something others have no idea
