Sign Language

The "mockumentary" short film Sign Language is unexpectedly heart-warming.

"My workplace is wonderful, and I want to share it." These
are the opening words of Ben – a man who holds a sign for a living, and
loves his job more than almost anything. But today is his last day. What happens next?

The film was made for a short film competition on workplaces. See it and the other competitors, and vote for your favorite. Link

    OH I LOVE IT! I almost cried at the end!

    But you can’t vote from the video. You have to go to go to http://www.reed.co.uk/film/ to vote.

    I watched the rest and it’s leagues ahead – they really deserve the win, but don’t seem to have as many friends to vote as their rivals.

    If this submission is for the purpose of the makers to win a competition, then it is spam.

    Marked as spam.

    Did you even watch it Tim? It’s lovely! I don’t care if they are trying to win – like I said I went and watched them all and I really think they deserve to.

    Re Tim’s spam-flag: so delete the last paragraph and get the video on the front page anyway! It’s brilliant and it needs to be seen :-)
