We might not have stood as close to each other for the past couple of years, what with that Covid thing, but that doesn't stop the occasional shoulder-shove from occurring.
However, we would hope that, should it occur, you wouldn't be as hellbent on retribution as the aggro antagonist in this beautifully paced short from director Maziyar Khatam, BUMP.
Starring in the piece, alongside Dylan Ray Hatton, as well as writing it, Khatam showcases a skill for finding the comedy in a slice of life, embuing the performances with a humourous tragedy and certainly deserving of its Sundance 2022 Film Festival official selection.
