Yo

In this macabre whimsy about how violence breeds violence, director John Weldon dissects the nature of personal space and interpersonal relationships.

A pesky individual turns into a bully when the attention he craves is not freely given. The plot accelerates to the beat of a swinging piano solo and erupts into a startling finale.

Under the guise of a simple story, "Yo" is an astute sketch of human behavior embracing a complexity of issues. It is a metaphor for a world where violence has leached into the water table. A cautionary tale that springboards from the playground into geopolitics.
