WHERE can I buy this short movie? This is a great idea and it's really needed here in Europe to have these kind of message. I listen to the radio everyday and the lack of empathy is depressing. In the countryside, ppl are protesting nowadays cause they don't want an Afghan family coming to their town. What the fuck? What if it'd happen to us in our comfortable houses?
With this, I'm liking whatever Jack O'connell is doing with his career. Holliday Grainger <3
