| Brief | We meet an older Polish man who has clearly decided to make a great effort to learn English. We follow him throughout his life as he practices using a book he's ordered online, some tapes and sticky labels. Shortly after, he takes a plane to England. He arrives at his son's home, where he is introduced to a shy little girl. "Hi," he says. "I am your grandpa." And you? What are you looking for? Order it online from Allegro.
This touching tale depicts an older Polish man who makes a great effort to learn English, using a system he's ordered online via Allegro. At the every end, we realise that his goal was to communicate with his new granddaughter in London. "Hi," he says, when he meets her. "I'm your grandpa."
With a few clicks of his mouse and a confident nod to his Jack Russell, an elderly man orders English for Beginners online. Soon, Post-It notes are strewn about his house as he labels everything in English, right down to the dog. “I am, you are…” he practices. Later, a suitcase comes in the mail. He packs and takes a flight to the UK, where he joins his son and daughter-in-law for Christmas. A timid little girl appears. “Hi," he tells her. "I am your grandpa.” Hearts melt. |
