This uses an engagingly smudgy, visually accentuated, style of animation as we pass the time with a Jewish family patiently waiting for the death of grandmother. Patiently? Well not quite everyone. The grandson has been promised her room in their second floor flat since he was seven, so he might sooner she just got on with it. A view not entirely disputed by his mother. A bit of chat with his friends informs us all of a few post mortem facts courtesy of Lenny Kravitz and "Perry Mason" before they shut up for fear of her coming back to haunt them! Mother gets a gall stones and gran is moved to hospital Mother recovers and back comes gran. Will she go on forever? Will the lad ever get his room? Did you know that the last thing someone does when they are hanged is have an orgasm? Watch and see...
