Plot
A young pianist is forced to confront her fear of motherhood when she marries into a remote island community with bizarre fertility rituals.
Cast
Nothing to report, though Jenny Wu was competent.
Verdict
Australian made Drum Wave is haunting and visually impressive though ultimately arthouse and nonsensical. If it didn't have its aesthetics going for it the short would have absolutely nothing. It's pretty and presents itself as deep but truth be told it's bland and goes nowhere.
Rants
Do I have a fear of fatherhood? Is that why I have no crotch goblins to my name? Nope. I have no fear, I just cannot abide the smells nor the sounds nor the responsibility nor the expense nor the immaturity nor the braggadociousness. Children are an STD, I ain't no fool I wrap my tool!

The Good
- Visually appealing
The Bad
- Rather boring
- Serves little point.
