"Yes, God, Yes" is an American 11-minute live action short film from earlier this year (2017), so still a relatively new and fresh work. Writer and director is Karen Maine, who is mostly known for writing "Obvious Child", the short and long movie. This one we have here is her first directorial effort. It is basically about a teenage girl exploring her sexuality for the first time. Problem is she is obviously growing up in a strictly religious house and visiting a catholic school. But her doubts about what God may be thinking about masturbation for example are quickly put aside when she makes a must unusual discovery in her teacher's room. I thought this was a pretty good watch. Of course the film profits a lot from the sexual innuendo, especially early on, but it's more than that. I still would only say it can be taken seriously as a comedy, not really as a drama. But I liked the ending because pleasuring oneself to something that means something to you, not necessarily something that is very sexual, made the film look real and authentic. It was a good film with strong writing and acting and I would not be surprised if lead actress Natalia Dyer will have a career for years to come. Go check it out.
