CinemaSerf6 Jan 9, 2025Well I wasn't expecting the denouement of this rather sad film about a young man who is hanging about outside Westminster Cathedral with his two friends. He then races to buy a bar of chocolate then sneaks into an extensive block of flats and hurries along it's seemingly endless corridors. Meantime there is a younger lad running through the building, too. Are they to meet? Is the chocolate for him? Or is something completely different about to occur? The filming is intimate as we follow this man on his mission, and the simple piano scoring adds a degree of solitude to the over all feel of this short but interestingly focussed feature. There's no acting as such, but there are still potent performances to watch.
