Attraction and....

....temptation. This is the term missing from the title. They are two sides of the same coin as this short movie shows.

There are two parallel stories in this shor movie that join in the end.
The first one is about an army sergeant who has a crush on his kind superior and even though he wants to tell him, he is confused by that kindness ,not knowing how to interpret it, so he loses his courage and says nothing.
The other story is about a female office worker who is having a fling with her married coworker.

Attraction is an amazingly well told and filmed story describing how difficult it is to reveal one's feelings or resist the temptation of acting on attraction. They also point out the difference in straight and gay attractions, because and in spite of our societies making huge advances, the straight relationship is still the norm and it is easier to act upon it and succumb to temptation. The soldier, in addition to being a man is in the Army where the hierarchy and obeissance are the rule so coming out to his superior has added difficulties. He was brave enough to approach him at the train station but was eventually made speechless but the superior's kindness and invisible barriers.

I would love to see this develop into a longer movie. Why was he attracted to his superior? Was he having hard time in the army and grabbed onto a little bit of kindness and understanding he could find? Why was she attracted to the married man? Bored but not wanting a serious relationship? Or something else...

Maybe I am reading too much into this or maybe not enough!
