Wonderful story telling

Maybe the best short film ever. This story is set in the woods where a bickering couple has dispose of a body. Alex Turner does a wonderful job directing this short film. In the time that they were given, A dark and comical story was told.

You really get a sense that the characters are feeling this dilemma, Of ruin our lives for the good of our conscience, or ruin our conscience for the good of our lives. The tag line, "Accidents happen" is the most fitting tag line ever.

In short, This is worth your time. A fun little film, That I would totally recommend.
