If you muted the sound / blocked out the title, you could easily mistake it for a wedding announcement or such, what with all the stifled giggles, beaming smiles and flirty hair-twirling:
Except that it’s a freshly bereaved family (parents and sisters of a murder victim) giving a press-release / obituary, one day after the murder. The sister (the one reading the script) had to identify her sister’s dead body the night before. The murder was rather brutal and horrific, the victim was shot three times (including in the face) at close range, and repeatedly stabbed.
Now, i loath dramatic public displays of emotion as much as the next person, but even i find the whole thing bizarre. Had a WTF moment when i first saw it on TV too, still baffled after watching it two more times.
(Somewhat relevant that the death is being exploited as political capital in a rather important issue.)
Those of you who love to analyse behavioural clues - what’s your take? Maybe they all ’are just medicated out of their heads as ‘grief-management’, or wtf?
