well crafted
Kirpianuscus24 November 2019
A trailers camp. A family. And the difficult relation between father and son. The film seems a pledge for acceptance, the portrait of effort of a father to make his son, giving to him a pair of boxing gloves but, in essence, it is a powerful image of a small comunity, about dark secrets, about the desire of a mather and the angry of her husband and gives a sort of key about an incident who transforms all perspective. So, a real well crafted short drama.

The best short film I've watched

Warning: Spoilers
I love this movie; and to think I'm besties with the actor who plays May! I'm sad we never got to find out what happened to May in the end, but it's a very good cliffhanger. I hope it gets a sequel, Second Saturday of May, maybe even First Sunday of May. The other review on here is incorrect, the person says son, when May is actually a daughter, the transgender bit probably went right over their head.

To sum things up, this is a good short movie about Irish people and the transgender community.

Brilliant work Mr McCarthy, see you tomorrow.
