Directed by Lasse Noer
Twitter Facebook Google+Overview
The loss of a loved one, the grief, the risk of yellow skin, and a coffin, that is too much for Karl to face. Then it’s much easier to fix a broken lamp. Karl meets Torben, a destined brother. An absurd, humorous, and melodic meeting between two old men captured by grief.

Viewing Notes
third film of the Academy Award nominees for Best Short Film (Live Action) group and my favorite of the bunch. Also an audience favorite based on the reaction (lots of laughs). Being a dark comedy softened the edges the premise (death of a loved one). Had to throw a wall up for this bc just hits too close to home for me but I did like how it was approached. I wish this one would win the Oscar (it won’t).
