Signs~Sigh~

This is a short movie about love story. The man in this movie was living a boring life by tired of working until one day he knew a girl who works in the buliding opposite to his office. He peeped the girl every day to run away from the boring work and one day the girl noticed him. Then, they began to talk by the signs on the paper, not really talking. Finally, the man asked the girl to meet and when they meet face to face, the girl say "hi" with a sign on paper!

Many people think this is a romantic love story, but I don't think so. One scene in this short movie I remembered is that before the man met the girl, he took the bus to his work place and the people in the bus used their "high technology" communication tool with apathy on their face. This scene reminds me another scence in the famous movie WALL-E, which all the people face a litter computer screen and talk through the ear-microphone to the person who is maybe on his/her side. I think it is a tragdy if people lose their normal communication skill and the communication style has to back up to the original one, by the signs....
