Title:Sick Day
A clever modern-day silent humor about a youngster who becomes ill during the week before his friend's birthday celebration. Two clear options, can he escape if he tries to, or can he get well earlier than possible? Watch it for its flavors of the modern lockdown phase with a tinge of silent-era comedy.
