What an entertaining short film! Perfectly acted by Sigrid Kandal Husjord, who I would love to see in more stuff.
It nicely straddles the genres of comedy (particularly at the start - - the random pressing of those buttons!) and drama, with some realistic and unsettling scenes of discrimination adding a bit of unexpected grit to the piece. The finale as well - even though you can gleefully see it coming - is gloriously satisfying.
It is unusual for me to enjoy a short film (just 15 minutes) so much. But I really did! Carve out 15 minutes to watch this one.
