The Short of It
2018, English. Directed by Will Garthwaite.
A care-free woman walking her dog, encounters a care-worn man digging a hole in the middle of the woods. Despite her vulnerability and his unexplained excavation, the pair hit it off; sharing an appreciation of semantics, and Ancient greek culture. Both man and woman are momentarily transported to a simpler time and place, their hearts a flutter. Only Sophocles, the dog, remains unpersuaded.
