CGiii Comment

Shortlisted for the Iris Prize - unfortunately, not a contender.

Mr Bohs does too much...but, it is the editing that is problematic, choppy and clumsy.

The sound levels are all over the place...detracting from the the on-screen sentiment...a sentiment that doesn't quite build up to its expectation.

A fine idea - not terribly original - done, in part, very well - but, those edits!!!
