Cute and worth a watch
30 January 2008
This is an odd and enjoyable little short, though I think it probably would be enjoyed more by someone from Ireland, China or perhaps Scotland and Wales (where they speak their own particular version of the Gaelic in a few isolated regions). The "joke" was pretty cute, but for Americans like me and other nationalities, I doubt if it would have the same impact.

Yu Ming is an odd man living in China. He wants a change and randomly chooses a new place to live. His finger falls upon Ireland on the globe and so he spends the next six months learning the language--only to arrive there and find that practically no one speaks Gaelic any more. However, this isn't the end of the film and where it goes next you'll have to see.

Overall, it was well made, watchable and a quality production.
