I found this short movie to be a perfect example of how language genocide can be a success. Today's Irish people think English, while believing there minds a souls, that there stories can be told with no subtitles. It's the image of the English linguistic imperialism at its best. Pipes, Bushmills, Guiness and a lady with no hair on her head. There used to be more Ireland beyond the shamrock. When one believes that a Chinese speaking one's national language, is just speaking Chinese... meaning not even the sound of it is no longer vaguely familiar, how sad can this be. this movie is more than just a movie,it is a sad story told in a amazingly light way, or just an outstanding in memoriam.
