Movie

Rubinstein’s

JADE (34), is a young successful black woman who stumbles into a Jewish antique Jewellers one Saturday afternoon. She’s proud of her liberal and anti-heteronormative values. So, she's suspicious of the elderly shop-owners, Morris and Arnold, who scrutinise the colour of her skin and make assumptions about her sexuality. They ask uncomfortable questions, not so well equipped with the language of the modern world. As her anxiety escalates to horror-scale panic, she falls apart, revealing the real reason she's in the shop: she confesses her girlfriend has proposed, and she doesn't know if she can commit.
