Uddrag
Her får du en smagsprøve på vores study guide:
Joey’s profession is one typically associated with men. She is a soldier. However, it does not seem that she chose this career. Rather, it was her mother who pushed her to pursue it.
Analyze the way in which the parents in the short movie are only sketched. We do not know much about the mother or the father, but we know that they fail to understand Joey’s sexual orientation.
