Questions about the film

Understand the story and themes, express your feelings and develop critical thinking.

1Who is the main character? How would you describe him?
He is a Viking who looks burly and not at all easy-going.

2Where is he and what does he come to do there?
He is in a tavern and comes to order a drink.

3When he is served, he seems unhappy. Why do you think he seems unhappy?
You get the feeling he might want a heftier drink, in a large glass for example.

4Ultimately, why is he unhappy?
He is angry because he wanted a little decorative umbrella on his glass.

5How does the film's soundscape contradict the small glass served to the Viking?
The background noises in the tavern really suggest a rough, no-frills atmosphere, far from the more refined world of a cocktail bar...

6What is the moral of this short story?
You should not judge by appearances; even a big, rough-looking tough guy can pay attention to small, refined details like the elegant decoration of his cocktail glass.

7Which of Jean de la Fontaine's fables illustrates this idea well?
"There is no point in running; you have to leave on time." The Hare and the Tortoise are a testimony to this. The Hare and the Tortoise, Jean de la Fontaine (1668)
