Cashback (2004)
9/10
Cashback, a short film, long on imagination and wit.
16 June 2004
Cashback is a gem of a short film. It has a unique visual aesthetic laced with a wicked sense of humour. Sean Ellis gets beautiful performances from his actors, played out beneath the life sapping neon of this enclosed world, brilliantly creating the boredom of the lives of the nightshift workers in a 24 hour supermarket. We're sucked into their twilight existence and treated to the surreal, bizarre and comic; as the characters each find their way to make it through the graveyard shift.

It makes you laugh and makes you think.You'll never look at a store worker the same way again. It's a short film, long on wit and imagination.
