Synopsis

A schoolyard tussle between two friends escalates when the kids’ self-righteous and macho fathers get involved. Through an astute observational lens, the hustle and bustle of elementary school-aged children is humorously and poignantly juxtaposed with the absurd dynamics of grown men who have yet to grow up.

This film screens as part of Shorts Program 5: Comedy.
