When driving his car Jimmy (Gustaf Skarsgård) suddenly sees a woman running away from a man. He stops the car and asks her if she is in need of help. "The Girl" (as Serena Reeder's character is refered to - I don't remember what name she mentions in the film), is in need of a mobile phone and while talking with Jimmy, he decides to offer her a ride.Who's taken for a ride?
Superficially it seems as if Jimmy is 'the victim', after having experienced a wonderful time with this woman who suddenly runs away, just like she did previosly, leaving him without any explanations to her behaviour and not seeming to have been ill treated by Jimmy either.
Might it be that this is a woman being so scarred by the relationships she has had with men that she is afraid of engaging herself and leave before her feelings deepens or is she a fraud, in some way taking advantage of the men she encounters?
One might also ask oneself if the fact that men often use their lower head when thinking, makes Jimmy believe that there are more to their relationship than it actually is and thereby involuntary 'threatens' this woman when his pheromones is activated?
Thirdly one might ask oneself if Jimmy is experiencing a déja vu, reliving something already having happened.
Judge for yourself. It's however a quite interesting short film and we'll hope that the director Petter Ringbom will be able to go on making feature films, if this is what he wants.
