Work From Home: The Appraisal

The short film maps the experiences of two men awaiting a job appraisal during the coronavirus lockdown. The same is attempted in a comedic manner, as the entirety of the narrative comes to be constituted by phone call conversations. The film comes across as an effort which could have perhaps benefited from more engagement with its subject matter before it became a final product.

The attempts are dedicated, but somehow do not translate on screen as the movie ends up exhibiting want of polish and finishing. However, amidst it all, what will be the fate of the two characters as they make fervent calls to their senior to get some kind of financial clarity on their situation?
