Write a short summary of what happens in the film

We see two young women taking non-stop photos with a selfie stick in the middle of some stairs on a really busy street. The women carelessly block all passers-by that are in a rush trying to get somewhere else. Nothing is more important to them that taking the perfect selfie. An elderly man tries to walk by but the women don’t let him pass, so he ends up being in their pictures. The man looks bitter and resigned. An all-knowing narrator sarcastically comments on the situation and puts in evidence how city life can be so annoying. Luckily, with a smart, at least driving in the city isn’t annoying at all
