This starts with Jonathon the husband masturbating in the shower , something his wife Grace makes a joke about . Having never been married I was puzzled as to how this reaction sums up a married relationship . Is it a good sign or a bad sign of a marriage ? Nevertheless Jack and Grace seem to have problems in their relationship because Jack is drawn to Mitsy an Eastern European immigrant who cleans the office he works in . It's at this point my interest in the narrative started waning because the story revolves around Jack's emotional angst of whether he should go to bed with Mitsy or not . Bob The Moo has commentated on how well actor Jack Deam has put across the emotional turmoil his character is suffering but all this really does is make FLOATING a rather bleak and depressing short film and the longer it goes on the more bleak and depressing things become . Thank goodness it wasn't a feature length movie other wise I would have hanged myself long before the title credits
