一名怀孕的吸毒女子在是否堕胎之间左右为难。影片中没有绝对正面的人物，佩恩以一种不计后果的勇气和甚至有些刻毒的嘲讽对堕胎这一事件上的双方都进行了挖苦——在这场上升到意识形态领域的争执中，个体生命是最终被忽视和被牺牲的。尽管喜剧元素有些夸张过火，但佩恩犀利敏锐的社会讽刺和出色的幽默感却在影片中初露峥嵘。也是从这部电影开始，佩恩和吉姆·泰勒进行合作编剧。

An elliptical look at a young man’s homecoming, emerging LA filmmaker Dwayne LeBlanc’s Civic idles in the in-between. Framed entirely within the confines of a car’s interior, LeBlanc’s richly textured short is built on small gestures, sporadic interruptions, and long pauses between belly laughs, all told beneath the soft rumble of traffic. Missed phone calls and muffled voices come and go as Booker (Barrington Darius) reconnects with friends and family, telling a subtle story of displacement and the enduring desire for recognition in South Central Los Angeles. The first of a trilogy of shorts investigating migration, Civic is concerned with what casual interactions and ordinary habits say about our circumstances, rather than any kind of clearly defined dramatic tension. After a lengthy absence, Booker floats through the familiar side streets and freeways of LA with fresh eyes. Along the way, he’s met with mixed reactions from those who’ve stayed. Some call him a “big shot” for leaving, others tease him for having the same haircut and music taste. A flag of Dominica hangs from his rearview mirror, which together with a few half-thoughts and unfinished phrases, hints at a previous generation’s parallel journey from home.
