It's Christmas for Christ's sake!

Warning: Spoilers
The idea to talk about alcohol problems through the story of a group of octogenarians in a care home is unconventionally catchy. The elderly characters unfold as playful children going on a heist in the middle of the night and by the end they strike you with their wisdom about the unchanging nature of man.

The short film is very professionally put together with inventive cinematography and great production design, just a pleasure to watch.

***spoiler-alert*** The "Sixth Sense"-like reveal in the end is powerfully captured in a single developing shot, David de Keyser's performance is really touching.

It's definitely 15 minutes well spent!
