Synopsis
A 2D animated short that captures a playful imagination where impatience blurs the line between fantasy and reality during a 90-second wait in front of a microwave.
Director's Comment
Waiting has become increasingly unbearable for people living in today's fast-paced world. This film follows a college student caught in an extreme time crunch — a mere 15-minute lunch break squeezed between back-to-back lectures. What begins as a small everyday mishap becomes a comedic reflection on modern life — a gentle nudge to examine just how little patience we have left, and what that says about the way we live.

Detailed description
The film transforms the familiar anxiety of a short lunch break into a fast-paced and witty adventure. With only fifteen minutes to get everything done, even the smallest mistake feels as tense as a high-stakes chase. Its greatest charm lies in turning an ordinary, relatable moment into something unexpectedly urgent and entertaining.
