Boxed In is a 2018 Irish Short Film, produced by North Wicklow Films. It is written by Brian Matthews-Murphy and directed by David Keeling.The protagonist Seanie (Gerry Cannon) is a creature of habit. He went to school across the road, went to work around the corner and married the woman next door. Essentially he's never left his quaint small town.One day however he meets an American tourist called Jack (Bobby Calloway). He's the complete opposite; he's seen the whole world and plans to see even more. Oh and he lives in a box.The film can be watched here. | |

Parody Sue: Jack is a bubble of quirk who livens up Seanie's life...and he's also an extreme agoraphobic who lives in a box. | |

Skewed Priorities: Seanie is less shocked by encountering a man that lives in a box and more shocked that his name is Jack. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Boxed In / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: Seanie mentioned that he's married. It's not said what his wife is doing while he's on his holiday with Jack (unless she's taking the pictures). Or more simply she could be dead. | |
