Experiencing Interruptions?

OVERTHINKING

A man and a woman meet outside a movie theater. During their conversation, the man occasionally looks at the camera; the woman, on the other hand, seems to pretend nothing is happening. During their evening, the man seems increasingly annoyed by the presence of the camera and incredulous that the woman remains indifferent. This misunderstanding will lead to ruining their relationship. Little does the man know, however, that in order to overcome it, he will have to come to terms with something unexpected: himself!
