Adult Life Skills (DVD)

Anna is stuck: She's approaching 30 and having a mid-life crisis--one that's seen her regressing to a teenager, living like a hermit in her mums garden and wondering why the suffragettes ever bothered. She spends her days making videos using her thumbs as actors--thumbs that bicker about things like whether Yogi Bear is a moral or existential nihilist. But Anna doesn't show these videos to anyone and no-one knows what they are for. A week before her birthday, her mum serves her an ultimatum--she needs to move out of the shed, get a haircut that doesn't put her gender in question and stop dressing like a homeless teenager. Naturally, Anna tells her mum to BACK THE F-OFF. However, when school friend comes to visit, Anna's self-imposed isolation becomes impossible to maintain. Soon she is entangled with a troubled eight-year old boy obsessed with Westerns, and the local real estate agent whose awkwardness continually undermines his attempts to seduce her.
