Kind Words
“I loved this short comedy! It’s wonderfully shot and edited, and is gorgeous to look at. There is a lightness and airiness to the grade that really makes this pop. The story is massively relatable for most people, as the fear of being on helpline roulette is a real thing! But to accidentally die and find the afterlife just as badly organised as the real world is lovely to watch.”
