a couple life crisis

At first sight, a nice short Sci Fi. A couple crisis , result of his dominating behavior and her expectations. A present who , at first sight, must fix the conflict. In essence, it is only the tool for define the causes of the tensions.

Maybe, the basic virtue of this short fil is represented by the high dose of realism.

In short, the couple life crisis is fair defined, as a game of vulnerabilities , defining both partners.

The answer to tension is, in same measure, fair crafted, reminding the intrusion in life of customers , from searches having as result adds , to the effort to make more easy the life in a form of other.

Result - impressive solutions for Ted and the atmosphere reminding Ingmar Bergman explorations of marriage crisis.
