Director’s Statement

ROWAN I believe that highlighting the humour and absurdity of life through stories are both creative and crucial parts of life. This film was inspired by the part of ourselves that is both embarrassed and almost in waiting for our boiling point. The everyday bureaucracy of the world can very often be the thing that pushes our limits. We all have wanted to lose our temper at the absurdity of the world’s rules and regulations. But what are the ramifications of us doing it in a public space?
