Summary
Ebba, who has dwarfism, waits for a tram to arrive. When it does, the conductor leaves for the restroom and prevents her from boarding without him being present. Due to the cold weather, Ebba sneaks onboard anyway, and curiously plays with the conductor's controls trying to close the doors. When she accidentally causes the tram to move, she decides to keep going in order to avoid reprisal from the outraged conductor. As the tram pulls away with Allan at the controls, Ebba sits with Ariel at a nearby bench, and the two bond. They witness a police car chasing after the delinquent tram, and they exchange a smile, knowing that Allan will soon get his comeuppance.
Accolades
The film was nominated for the 2023 Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film.[1][2][3][4]
