"A Rose For Katrina" (Review)

Wow this short is original and captivatingly engaging  . I find myself worrying what is really going on here. Bravo to the screen writers and directors. The setting adds so much to the story. 

Michael arrives for a date with Katrina, a woman he has met online. Hoping to make an impression he has brought her a rose. He is greeted at the door by someone who he initially believes is Katrina but who reveals themselves to be Katrina’s identical twin sister. Katrina’s sister is cold, even aggressive towards Michael. Michael suspects she is actually Katrina and playing a trick on him, though she denies this.

While they wait for the real Katrina to emerge, she challenges Michael to take a strange bet and becomes verbally abusive when he refuses. Michael, confused and humiliated, leaves, at which point the “real Katrina” appears and apologises for her sister's behaviour. She convinces Michael to get a drink with her. Michael gives her the rose, she asks him if it is real, when he says it is she asks what he would “bet on it.”
