Just Another Day is a simple but heartrending story about a young boy who must care for his mother after she is left catatonic in the same car crash that killed his father. While the actors have difficulty embracing what is fairly typical dialogue, the story is one that largely tells itself. Viewers are made to truly feel for a story rooted in its tragic simplicity. The short is supported by good camera work and music that does an excellent job of setting a mood of tragedy and tedium, pushing through each day just like the day before it with nothing but an identical day lying ahead.
