Watched with mum because she is very upset she couldn’t go to the q&a screening last week. Throughout the film I told her all the fun facts I learnt at it!

I got to meet the director and writer! And I sat next to them (the aisle was between us but still!) and they signed my dvd and I got pictures with them! 😝😝😝

Shoutout to the Greek bloke at work who pulled this recommendation out of his ass. Wasn’t aware he knew ball like that.
