This was awkward to watch but also strangely enduring. You really can know 2 people very quick in a film. 13 minutes is all this one took.

Michael Strassner has a brilliant way to explore sobriety and sexuality in this short. He doesn’t leave anything behind. Especially no body shaming at all.

I hope to see Michael Strassner is plenty more movies because his writing just hits me.
