I enjoy hour-long mini-features but this one felt both overstretched and underdeveloped. Shaky acting, too.

Filmmaking is proficient with only meager narrative and emotional hooks in first half. Second half all the more meager, despite clear straining for feeling. Blink and you miss the whole thing.
