Great production value and a novel premise.

With a radical concept like this one it would be easy for this to turn into a feminist manifesto of sorts. The filmmakers skilfully avoided this and instead produced a fun and funny short that can make men and women alike giggle at the double-standards we all see in daily life. The lighting, costume's and cinematography compliment good performances from many recognizable actors. I'm not sure I understand the exact purpose of this film. It's 11 minute runtime plants it firmly in the 'short' category but the quality of the production suggests that someone raised a lot of money to make this film which will be difficult to market and may serve only as a promotional piece or calling card for Five Sisters Productions.
