An extremely short film on the dangers of self importance. Laced with irony but serving a reasonably important point. Perhaps it illustrates a major point of all these films – to notice the experience of one’s own life rather than charge full steam ahead into changing it.

Absurdly obvious self importance dressed as arrogance is easy to spot. But other shades are not. Who might be perceptive, or courageous enough to take up such a challenge?
Ironically, as I usually play guitar on the films, music is by STEPHANE WREMBEL.
