two guys take mushrooms. one guy is caveh, one guy is will. caveh gets nervous, will drives a go-kart. caveh puts grass on his head, will smiles. caveh communes with a tiny beetle, will gets attacked by hornets.

There is a really long list of people I would NEVER do this with, but Caveh Zahedi (I AM A SEX ADDICT) tops the list. Oldham handles this existential nightmare with neo-sincere aplomb, and even accidentally steps in a hornets nest, proving this is a cruel, unjust hell on earth made up of narcissistic film makers. Will earns all 4 stars, and the editor - minus one star for any second over the 30 minute run time.
Watching this was a great way to unwind after a rough week. Great flow, easy to watch, some humor, some surprises, the music works well with the film, some frameable single frames. Enjoyed it.
