UK Shorts 3
Total: 87 mins 45 secsThis selection of UK shorts looks at the everyday relationships we have with those we know and those we’ve only just met. We watch a mutual connection develop between two strangers who are scared to explore, while a husband isn’t quite ready to grieve yet. A call to an LGBTQ+ helpline lends a friendly ear, as a single mum struggles with costs at Christmas.
