Starting with on-screen text that states “This film is a pack of lies”, Director Jeremiah Quinn brings into relief that it is anything but. By drawing a line between cinema and reality, he assures the viewer that despite the use of actors and other devices used in this portrayal, “I will tell you what is and what is not, the truth.”

Weird little short. I liked it!

It's 10 minutes long and you commented 4 minutes after the short was posted?

Edit: Just finsihed myself, was really interesting and well made

I wrote my comment while watching it (which I normally do not do). I meant to say "I like it!" not "I liked it!". Sorry for the confusion.

I do stand by my words though. It's a weird/strange short that I liked!

I thought that was utterly brilliant. I loved the way the film played with a film's reenactment of actual events. I really enjoyed that. Can't think of any criticisms.

Does anybody know what kind of text that is?
