A British short film by director and writer Benjamin Cleary about a typographer who stutters and therefore lives a secluded life. In his mind and on paper, he produces the most fantastic sentences. Beautifully worded, sharp, and humorous. A stark contrast to his real-life vocal abilities. In an interaction with another person, he can barely utter a single intelligible word. A voiceover revealing the stuttering protagonist's thoughts dramatically illustrates this contrast.
With subtle humor, a beautifully flowing narrative style, and stunning visuals, the film shows how difficult and harsh life can be when you're unable to articulate properly. The film manages to steer clear of the dramatic and lamentable by humorously and lightheartedly portraying the protagonist's daily struggles.
Stutterer is a very pleasant, only 12-minute feel-good film about a stutterer who wants nothing but a happy ending. It's a beautiful short film that leaves you wanting more from Cleary. He's also made a feature film (Swan Song (2021)) that runs almost 120 minutes, in addition to other short films. A completely different experience and well-regarded. Interesting. It's going on my watchlist.
