Sorry, I just... what? I'm not sure I get it. I think this is intending to be Dadaist nonsense satirising the potential horrors that environmentalists deal with, and the brick walls they run into while trying to explain the scale of the crisis to powerful authorities. But if it's aiming for complete nonsense, there are far too many actual jokes in it. Stacking three comical disabilities on the policeman is funny as a piece of hyperbolic absurdism, but each one is played for genuine laughs, albeit badly.

2023 Oscars: Live Action Shorts - #2

Utterly ridiculous premise that works mostly thanks to the commitment of the actors, Laura Gómez-Lacueva reminded me of a young Chus Lampreave.

This horror comedy would fall flat if not for the commitment of it's stars. Weird but funny!

A crítica está ali e o nível de absurdo chega a ser cômico, mas mais pelo ridículo do que qualquer outra coisa. É o You’re Dead Hélène dessa temporada, mas sem o brilho do mesmo.
