Write a short summary of what happens in the film

In the film we see vignettes of confused customers in different trendy shops and chains trying to get a clear explanation of what a flat white is. They're met with a mixture of patronising descriptions and nonsense explanations. It becomes clear that no one, not even baristas know exactly what a flat white is. The film concludes with a McDonald's crew member explaining that it's like a stronger latte just with less milk, to a customer who's ordered a flat white. He can rest easy knowing he's solved the mystery.
