UK short film “Hermit”

UK-based filmmaker Susannah Bragg has produced a half-hour short comedy film titled “Hermit,” described as:

a short fiction film about a young prodigy who, for the past 20 years, has woven fantastic stories of worldwide acclaim — from the confines of her room. However, on her 28th birthday, she runs out of ideas. Now, she must re-enter the world.

Welcome to Izzy Blue’s slightly surreal and off-kilter life. Come along with her as she tries to reconnect with her family and share in her fantastic adventures.

Unfortunately, fantasy and reality are not always as distinct — or as comprehensible — as Izzy would wish them to be. In fact, an increasingly widespread phenomenon in Japan, Hikikomori (“Shut-in’s”) soon will number up to a million.
