yuukiftb There is an old man who seems to be retired from car company. He seems he doesn't have his own family, and being alone all day. Since he wants to talk with someone, he sometimes go to his previous work place, but workers say not to come. Moreover, in order to talk, he calls many people at random, and a woman comes to his house to talk about her country. He is happy to have a person to talk with, but he gets angry easily, so the woman comes to be afraid of him. What will happen in the ending? Before watching everything, I expected how it will end. My idea is kind of right, but it has more surprising ending! I wish there were no men like him in a real world.
sgsbbcgbbc A old man is in a bus and speaks to a girl sitting on a next seat but she shows no interest in him. He gets to a factory where he worked in the past. He speaks this former colleagues but they refuse to deal with him. He comes back home and he calls someone who don't know him to get a partner to speak. Then, a girl who propagates religion visits him. He is glad to get the partner to speak to. However, she tries to leave. I think the situation in this film resembles a problem of dying alone Japan. In Japan old people die alone and many times pass because nobody notices that they are dead. I think dying alone is caused by a lack of a relation to people. This film tells me that it is very difficult to keep the relation but that is the most important thing to live.
acingst An old man sits on the seat next to a girl student on a bus. His name is Birger Andersson. He talks to her. But she does not actively talk with him. He says that he works a good company 'Volvo'. Actually he goes to the company to work. However, he is ignored by colleagues. Even the cook of the dining room does not communicate him. He is alone. He feels lonely so much. How much does he feel lonely? I image his loneliness; however, my image is not more than his loneliness. After he returns his home, one girl comes to his house. I am surprised that an old and a lonely man chooses action. I am also surprised by her action. Recently, aging society is accelerating in developed countries. This movie perhaps give a lot of people aging society's problems and makes people think about many positive or negative products which aging society create. I also am thought about aging society and single life with loneliness of old people by this movie. This movie is able to say the film that gives the society of the problem with the surprise to people who see.
Enchorde ** HERE BE SPOILERS **Birger (Ljungren) is either retired or has been let off from his work. Still in search for human contact, everyday he goes back to work. He tries to talk to people on the bus, he tries to talk to people at the factory and he tries to eat lunch at 9.30, just tom make some sort of contact. At home he desperately seeks contact with people by calling people at ransom and claiming to have misdialed, and then tries to talk to them. His luck is made when a girl (Frode) from Hare Krishna is out informing about a book and her religion. He invites her but do not really want to talk about religion. When she wants to leave, things get out of hand.An extremely depressing short. Might have some insights how life may turn out (in a worst case scenario) when retirement comes and this is what saves it from being a disaster. Why anyone would like to watch this on the other hand is beyond my comprehension.2/10
