And Then Ice Cream

Ephemeral film · 10 min

Synopsis

The film "And Then Ice Cream" depicts two groups of young children during lunchtime. In the first group, Larry and Helen are reluctant to eat their meals, with Helen trying to reach for dessert before finishing her dinner. Larry complies with the teacher's request to eat before having ice cream. In the second group, John shows little interest in his meal, but his teacher encourages him to try everything. Ultimately, both groups relate ice cream as a reward for finishing their meals, showcasing the dynamics of children's eating habits and teacher-student interactions.

Shows two scenarioss of a group of kids eating dinner they don't like. One is promised ice cream if they finish a bit of their dinner, the other just accepts the kid is through, and now ice cream. Which is better? Interesting scenarios, though I could have done without the film basically repeating itself.
