Close Shave
2012, English. Directed by Chris Zarb.
Set a few decades ago. The serene, even joyful atmosphere, created by Mario Lanza's "Funiculì, Funiculà" and the soft lighting characterize the normal morning routine of a father and his son. This turns into tragedy as the son experiments with his first and last shave.
