Appealing

Still having vivid memories of how boring school work can be, this short film had a lot of draw for me. I was never overworked as a child, so the prospect of the boring bits never ending seems like a travesty! However, this is a one sided film from the child's perspective while they are young. Their view might differ when they are mature, and have a skill advantage. Also, the position of the parents and teachers are never addressed. They struggle too!
