A Good Short Film

I remember this short film being advertised on HBO. I missed the original run on TV and have been searching for this movie for over 25 year and watched it for the first time last night on Amazon. I must say that even though a lot of the film looks very dated with the cinematography and soundtrack, the story itself is very relevant for today and kept me engaged. The play like feel makes the actors and the dialogue are the focus of the piece. My hope is that this gets a limited release in theaters or at a film festival. Good movie.
