Plot

A child with a bleeding nose, sitting at the window in a bus and his young father whose nose is bleeding too. The young father tries to wipe the blood from the child’s nose, but because his own nose is bleeding too, It keeps on dripping on his shirt, and whenever he tries to wipe his own blood away, the same happens to the little boy – not about this is the Film.

Sinekatalog’s take

A tiny, whimsical short about a father and child with bleeding noses on a bus, each trying to wipe the other's blood. The absurd loop is both comic and tender. A neat curiosity for fans of minimalist shorts.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
