Escapism - is a rich fantasy life better than reality?
Roger the poor 'latchkey kid' who has to look after himself because his mother is too busy pursuing her lifestyle choices. I think that we've all known a 'Roger' or been there ourselves so the story elicits empathy for the main character. I like the juxtaposition of the comedy mum (smoking, drinking and working out - all at the same time!) and the sad dad who leaves his baby son to his fate - a lonely life. The sharp contrast between Roger's fantasy world and his reality is what makes this short enjoyable. I was rooting for Roger and cared whether he would be able to be happy. I watched this without audio, it's a very visual piece and I followed the story without any difficulty. It was predictable in parts - but a lot of fun.
