Judgment Day (?) Matt Gismondi

Watched as part of the 'Selection from the Collection Part 5' at the Phoenix Art Museum courtesy of No Festival Required.

Judgment Day was a surprise. It's a very simple concept, but elegantly and memorably executed in a mere three minutes. Two men sit at tables, waiting, and they spend their time wondering about each other. Almost all the dialogue is unspoken, heard through their thoughts. It's profane, it's profound and the ending is a real peach. The bulk of the story comes in our own minds after the three minute running time is over.
