Experiencing Interruptions?

Headz (short film)

In the spacious and rusty confines of an abandoned warehouse he calls home, Factory Man goes about everyday life, gathering scattered items and exploring the land nearby. His sole companions in this lonesome existence are pigeons and a discarded manikin, which he goes to great lengths to dress up and make presentable. Then one day Factory Man crosses paths with a wandering woman and knows she is the one for him. He tries to get her attention with waves and then with flowers but she ignores him. Then one day her life seems to be in danger and Factory Man runs to the rescue, only to get beat up and having her rescue him instead. The encounter though brings them together and true romance blossoms.
