IT’S FUNNY BECAUSE IT’S TRUE
It’s funny because it’s true is a 20 - minute piece following a young couple during their favourite weekend ritual: watching true crime documentaries together. As the night unfolds, underlying fears and tensions slowly begin to surface.
What starts as an ordinary evening gradually shifts into something far more unsettling, blurring the lines between observer and subjet, until the apartment itself begins to feel like a true crime scene.
