how about english subtitles????????
Asking for subtitles for this lovely, very expressive film, would be like needing a translation for “Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien.” The emotion tells it all. The spoken words here only describe what you’re watching. You’re not missing anything, and by not having a translation, it’s making the audience use their imagination, and that’s a plus. We’re getting too spoon feed these days, and imagination is being lost in translation.

This film really held my interest. Even though I could not understand the language, the characters were so expressive and the plot so engaging, I really did not need the “voice over.” Hope it wins but I have yet to vote for the most popular short.
