The short, a satirical comedy, stars Lesley Manville, Leo Bill, Alex McQueen, Peter Wright, Karl Johnson and Nicholas Burns and is the brainchild of writer/ director Alicia McDonald.

In 1919, a tea lady eavesdrops on a top-secret government meeting called to solve the latest, gravest problem facing the British Empire… A satirical comedy which wryly suggests that today’s obsession with female appearance was borne out of one official government meeting.

You can watch the short via the Vimeo player below.

Keep it THN for the next 12 days as we continue our coverage from the 2016 BFI London Film Festival.
