Read a description of the film

A sepia silent comedy about fitting in. A woman in a pink hat encounters a “Be Yourself Week” notice with compulsory attendance. Paperwork labels her “Too quiet”, “Too different” and “Not a team player”. Another sign celebrates difference “Subject to approval”. A closing title says everyone was encouraged to be themselves, with some restrictions, before “The End”.
