Totally love it. Reminds me of the short story "Coming Sun. Mon. Tues." by Don DeLillo.

A short with I think 90 scenes in 5 minutes and a theme which is clever and was thoroughly enjoyable for 5 minutes. No wasted time. 3.7/8 stars out of 5

couldn't stand the guy but silly & sweet
no wasted shots. tells much with little.
Sad biker.
I smiled the entire five minutes. Hollywood attempts to tell this type of story by making two hours piles of garbage whereas this film maker brilliantly tells the story in five minutes - and each minute is a gem by itself.
just what I needed in humor to balance the grief of my lost love.
Wonderfully simple subject matter and yet saucily original due to some wonderful visual story telling.
Ah! la misère des amours... Petit film prévisible mais bien fait.
goood movie?
Strange
Creative way to show what happens after a breakup. Worth watching!
been there done that
Beautiful framing and colour-grading. I love a film that can tell a story with little/no dialogue.
odd enough to be good
Interesting
GOOD LIFE STORY
great short. aloha
Pretty great short film. I found lot of the little nuances that the director put in to show the extreme range of emotion of the lead character rather amusing. I also enjoyed the vagueness of most of the situations the lead character is placed into - you never REALLY know the specifics of what he has been through, but ultimately that shows a broader picture and allows to to truly understand. The cinematography was fantastic. However, I think I would have liked to see a little bit of the original girl's side of things. In my opinion, that would have truly fledged out the dynamic I think the director was going for.
Stylish short with good editing, but nothing too special.
The editing is quite awesome!
Good movie - I can handle only 5 min of subtitles tho.
very French and very silly basically a waste of film and a jerk off
Cute.
Marvelous short
Boy loses girl. Boy meets girl. Boy loses girl. Boy survives.
Excellent!
Oh...made me laugh a lot. So true...
Sad and funny and youth minded direction and pursuit of happiness what can be.
