This short film is included in the following package(s): SHORTS: AFTER LAUGHTER COMES TEARS
At a busy downtown café, a woman zones out during a business meeting. A drifting seagull hits the window. The customers notice the incident but quickly stop paying attention. The woman, too, tries to ignore the event but is unable to shake it off. She notices the seagull is still alive but greatly suffering so heads outside to euthanize the bird. Some children watch and yell at her for trying to kill the seagull. She eventually twists the bird's neck and the children move back to their games. While she buries the bird in a nearby flowerbed, her colleagues and the customers stare at her.
